At 3:28 p.m. yesterday afternoon we crossed into South Carolina, a little southeast of Charlotte. We decided yesterday morning that we were ready to head south, see the girls, and pick up summer at home where we had left it.
The day started in Lumberton. We traveled through little towns and by farms to get to pottery territory in Randolph County. For those of you who do not know, this area has been famous for its pottery since the early days of our country. The clay in the region was good for making crocks and jugs. The jugs, of course, were used to contain spirits, for medicinal purposes, don't you know!
We found that many of the potters now close on Monday, but we did find what we were looking for at Potts close to Seagrove and at Frog Town pottery. After lunch at Jugtown Cafe, we headed south to the border.
Now, all that is left is mulling over the trip and putting making our awards. Yesterday we added "Best Privy" to our categories. We will have ample time to do this while we travel to Commerce, Macon, and home today.
