Today our “primary highways” series brings us to the state of North Carolina. We visit the Outer Banks, the Research Triangle, Bank of America Plaza, geek out on Moog synthesizers in Asheville and view the mountainous west.
It feels a little odd to be post this now, after the vote to approve Amendment One (it was written beforehand). There is quite a bit of ire directed at the state, and I did honestly hope that NC would be the first state in the region to defeat a marriage-discrimination amendment. But here we are, and there are still a lot of good people there, and so we focus on what's good and look forward to today's disruption of the Bank of America shareholders' meeting.
As always, please leave your thoughts about places in the state, especially all the places weren't able to cover in the article. And thanks to everyone for your support of this series!
