NCDOT Wildflower Program

When we were on our big road trip this summer, we were surprised at all of the beautiful flowers we saw all over the interstates in North Carolina.  The flowers are everywhere and are an amazing array of colors against your typical green surroundings.  Every corner we turned, my daughter would shout out which color [...]

As I drove up to The Guenther House, I had the unsettling feeling you get when you are putting yourself into a new situation or meeting new people.  I was a little bit nervous and it just got worse as I tried to locate the actual parking lot to the building.  I was at the [...]
