Still life - Big Ed's

Our table at Big Ed's looked like a still life.

Charging station

The only electric vehicle charging station I've seen in Raleigh is at Annie Louise Wilkerson Nature Preserve.  It sits in an open area near the parking lot.  As far as I can see, it's free.  So, you could drive over, plug in and take a nature hike.  The park has little electric carts driving around so maybe that's why they have the station.  

They also have a special parking spot for fuel efficient cars.  Just what a nature preserve should do.

And another morning sunrise

Maybe they're all starting to look the same?  I don't know, they're all spectacular.  

More old buildings

An old log house on the farm property I showed yesterday.  Maybe the cookhouse?  or the original homestead?

And here is another barn on the property.  It's covered in corrigated metal, but might be a log building underneath.  It looks like it's still being used for storage.

Old farm buildings

 

This place is a curiosity to me.  You can see the buildings from the greenway, but they're posted no trespassing.  Someone lives in a newer house toward the street on the other side of the property.  This barn looks very old.  The building below looks like worker's quarters, slave or sharecroppers?

Condo complex

We didn't see any residents, but I'll bet it's a busy place in the spring.

Theme day: Let's Play

The theme for March is "Let's Play".  This is part of the nature play area at Wilkerson Nature Preserve.
