June 29 - July 4, 2000:
A Trip to North Carolina

 

 

Fred and I have planned a short trip for this summer, one that will not keep Fred away from his property so long that things will dry up and die, and one that we can fit in using just a couple of vacation days. We are going to fly from Dallas to Greensboro on Thursday evening, June 29th, and on arrival drive to Elon to stay one night with my sister. Then we will use vacation days for Friday and Monday and spend four days driving around Western North Carolina visiting waterfalls and camping. (This will be the second time that we have taken our camping stuff with us on an airplane.) We'll extend our trip to cover Tuesday, July 4th, where we will end up back at my sister's house that afternoon, and fly home from Greensboro that evening.

While this will not be a long trip, I will be organizing it with a separate page for each day of the trip. This page contains the Master Index for the trip, and if you are familiar with how these index pages are used, you can skip the explanation of how it is organized by clicking here.

 

Using the Master Index

This trip is organized with a separate album page for each day, and in the Master Index below you will find links that will take you directly to any of those day pages. Each of these links will be alongside a description of the things we did that day, so you can skip directly to a day that might interest you. If you want to go through the whole trip day to day, then simply use the first day link and start there.

When you get to one of the day pages, you will see the same familiar buttons at the top and bottom of each page that will take you to the next day, the previous day or back to this Master Index. As I said, I have tried to organize things so that all you should want to do is use the "NEXT" button to go from page to page, but I have provided the other buttons should you wish to use them. When you finish looking at our trip, use the "RETURN" button (top or bottom of every page) to return to this Master Index. When you return to this page, you will find a link to take you to the top of this page where you will find the links that connect to the next and previous album pages for this year.

Each day page is divided into sections- each place we stopped or event that occurred will get its own section. If you are looking for a particular section, just scroll down until you find it; none of the pages are so big that this will take much time.

We hope you enjoy looking at the pictures. To access the Master Index, please click HERE.
