Our Pennsylvania relatives arrived by train on Wednesday afternoon.
Here is "Ms. Railrose" at the Wilson Train Station. She's a mosaic statue made by a local artist. (she waited with me......or, I waited with her)
While our family was here, we visited the NC Life and Science Museum in Durham and discovered what a fantastic place it was (we've never been there before).
This is the Butterfly House.
Butterflies everywhere...flying all around you. Loved it!
There were also trails, a petting zoo, a cafe and a train ride. The museum itself was fabulous. We spent the whole day there.

Another trip we took was to see the Tryon Palace in Historic New Bern, NC, about 2 hours from our house, along the coast.
We took the tour of the palace.
It was beautiful inside,
and out.
We stopped for ice cream at the Cow Cafe in downtown New Bern. Fun!
We enjoyed our time together...laughing, talking, catching up on news, eating out, taking walks, sight seeing and just having a great time while they were here.
And we are missing them already!
