Uptown Charlotte & Duke University in Durham, NC

 Here are pictures from Uptown Charlotte and our trip to Durham, NC where we spent the day with Brad's cousin Debra and her family.  Brad hadn't seen her in 15 years!  We had a great time and look forward to getting together again.  It's great to have some family in the area!!!

Brad and his truck! He has wanted a truck since he sold the Nissan. He is a happy guy!

Railroad tracks are rare around here but this one runs right through downtown Waxhaw

Andy found a "robot" to play with

Yeah we laughed too...until we saw the dirt cheap price tags on NAME BRAND furniture! We will be doing our furniture shopping in Waxhaw!
