Hello and Gretings from The Old North State

Hello to everyone my name is Andy and i am a resident of north carolina . I am protestant but i am also a seeker and am somewhere on the fence . What i love most about Anglicanism is the warm welcoming spirit it embodies .. That coupled with its traditions and openess i find very inviting .

 

Welcome Andy.

 

Welcome Andy. North Carolina is a neat place.

Thank you greg and monk

 

Welcome Andy and where is North Carolina?

 

Hello Gordon thank you ..North Carolina is a southern state in the United States on the eastern seaboard or the east coast .
What later became our state was once a member of the original 13 colonies of great Britain. We are a state of a few million people with mountains , beaches and rows and rows of forrest and farmland in the middle . I live in the middle ..
So how are things down under ?
Andy

 

Thanks for the reply - it sounds like it has everything.
It is currently our winter, and I ride a motorcycle so I always need to keep rugged up. Other then that life is good.

Blessings, Gordon

 

In relation to the USA I am pretty sure Australia and New Zealand are the deep south, unless we have penguins as members of the forum.

OK no Nun jokes.....

 

Totally lost on that one....

 

Well i can assure that nc is no longer tobacco road ..however we do have appalachia ..

 

I visited Atlanta Georgia in January 1997 does that count?

 

Well you would be a little more leaning towards Adams neck of the woods but the south is the south so we will say yes lol

 

It was the winter after the Olympics and the city was clean an fired up for tourism the people made me feel very welcome. I enjoyed the visit no end, I must say the last day in January the city was covered in snow and it was very cold for a Queenslander. LOL

 

Im glad you had a good time ..

 

Hey Andy, I have camped on the beaches of the Outer Banks a few times in my life. A beautiful place.

 

Hey Greg ..cool ..and yes it is quite lovely ..About where did you camp exactly ?:think:

 

The US park service campground in Buxton. Loved the night walks on the beach looking for ghost crabs and those beady little eyes.

 

I have been to Ashville a few times and I lived in South Carolina for 5 years and my wife was born and raised in Beaufort, SC right by Paris Island.

 

Hi robert that is awesome ..the mountains are beautiful in nc ..there is a placecalled maggie valley about 30 minutes drive from Asheville we visited every year it was my dads favorite place on earth .
