Six summers ago we moved to Carrboro, a great little town right next to Chapel Hill.

We lived in this house for a year while my husband did a sabbatical at the Humanities Center.

The two boys were in third and first grade here:

My daughter and I did our own “home preschool,” just the two of us.

We spent a happy year exploring the area and making new friends. This weekend we went back to attend the 25th wedding anniversary party of two of these friends. It was lovely to meet up with old friends and to revisit some of our old haunts. More on this later this week. For now, just a few snapshots from the weekend…
