Exploring North Carolina in the Fall with the Kids

Many newcomers ask me about things to do in North Carolina. My family just loves this daytrip from the Triangle. Take a leisurely drive to Asheboro so the kids can go to the Zoo. The Polar Bears are a big draw. After the zoo mosey over the Seagrove, North Carolina a short 5 minute drive away. There are over 50 potters in this area that sell their wares directly to the public. This is a link to the Seagrove Area Potters Association Polar Bears at the Asheboro Zoo

Last, if you're really ambitious, head over to the Richard Petty Museum which is also in the area. If you're in to race cars your family will love this stop.

Email me at Tracy@TracySantrock.com if you need directions.

This drive is timeless. Now that the weather has cooled of a bit it's a great opportunity for this priceless retreat.

Thanks for the reminder, Tracy. After our leaves are gone, this would be a good reason to come down off the mountain! Also Morrow Mountain State Park is nearby and great for camping or hiking.
