Happy Thursday! And another road trip recap!

Pin It My husband and I recently returned from a short trip to Winston Salem, NC for a vintage BMW eventClick here to see last year's event! What a beautiful area! And what a cool venue to display over 275 vintage cars! We spent most of our time in historic Old Salem, and I have to say I was quite smitten with the charm, the color, and the texture of the area.  I would definitely go back!  Here are just a few things that caught my eye.   Next time we're back, I'm going to get some of the famous sugar cake from Winkler Bakery.  Their almond pound cake was delicious!








 





 We made a new little friend...meet Belle!  She loved meeting people and looking at all the vintage cars.





We enjoyed a delightful lunch at the Salem Tavern, where the iced tea is just perfect. All the recipes for every dish on the menu are a well-kept secret. Even the waitstaff is not privy to such recipes.  


There were many beautiful, and mostly private, gardens in the area.
