It was foggy when we left and gray when we returned, but fairly sunny in North Carolina. On Monday, I saw a pretty garden in the historic part of Hillsborough. Toward evening, the waxing moon shone in an almost cloudless sky. I could hear a few birds that I couldn't see. There were some scary-sized anthills in the reddish soil.
Tuesday was cloudier in North Carolina. We briefly visited a small city park (with a
dry detention pond to control runoff) that had a wildflower border. Trees were much further advanced toward Autumn than back home and most of the wildflowers had gone to seed. Their beauty berries were redder than mine. A couple of bagworms hung from twigs.
On the way home, I got pictures of Kerr Reservoir and the Roanoke River. The sky grew overcast soon after we turned East. We passed a surprising number of cotton fields in Virginia.
