Travel North Carolina-A Stroll In Downtown Hickory NC

-

It was a nice cold day just before Christmas.  Rocky and I were on our way to Asheville, NC, and needed a halfway stop for lunch.  A friend said that Hickory was a nice town so we decided to make that our stop along the way.  

Before our stroll, we had a delicious lunch at Olde Hickory Station.  There, we enjoyed a delicious Goat Cheese and Pepper Jelly Burger.  It was amazing.

Below are a few photos from our stroll...Downtown Hickory
It is a lovely stroll with shops and restaurants.

We found a lovely mural...

They had seasonal decorations for the holiday season...



Cannon on Union Square
210mm German Howitzer / Surrendered to U.S. 1918 / Placed here in memory the men from this community who participated in the world war.




We really wanted to stop and play checkers, but this was just a pit stop, and we had miles to go on our journey.  We may have to make a trip just to explore Hickory.  
It seems to be a very nice city.

So if you find yourself traveling in or near Hickory, I suggest you stop by and enjoy the downtown and grab a bite to eat at Olde Hickory Station; you won't be disappointed.

Happy Travels!

I am so glad...fall is nearly here.  It has been a sweltering and humid summer, and yes, it is still that way today, but now that we have hit September, there is hope.   I love fall and winter weather and fall and winter fashion.  With that in mind, I have selected the September outfit I want to recreate.  I found the outfit on Pinterest.  I went to Amazon to see if I could recreate the look and will go into my closet to see if I can come close to creating the outfit.  What is nice about this look is that if it gets too hot outside, you can easily remove the sweater. Here is what I found... 1 -Levi's Women's 314 Shaping Straight Jeans 2- Fossil Women's Jolie Leather Crossbody Purse Handbag for Women 3- Peugeot Women's 14K Gold Plated Tank Leather Dress Watch with Roman Numerals Dial 4- Vepose Women's Ankle Boots Low Heels Chunky Cutout Booties+Perforated Western Shoes 5 -Canaria Italian 10kt Yellow Gold Diamond-Cut Dome Stud Earrings 6- Elesomo Womens Tops Short/Lon
