  • In this video, we want to take you to a local eatery right here in our own county, that we believe features the best pizza in the state of NC, with probably the most peaceful and serene atmosphere in which to eat it.

    …also, meant to say that your friend was very talented. LOVED the painting! Hope you plan to get it framed. My husband comes from a family of pickers and singers and plays the guitar and sings so we enjoyed his solo so much. Can’t beat someone just sitting around picking and singing…love it! So sorry for your loss🙏

    Like the NC State hoodies! Definitely wouldn't expect great pizza in the old country store when you first walked in. The garlic knots looked like they would be very good. Interesting that they had both styles of pizza at this restaurant. Chicago style pizza is very filling. I always go for thin crust...especially Grimaldi's.😄 🍕 Always enjoy those unique out of the way places. Great video!

      And yes, Shawnasi bought us those matching hoodies right after surprising me with tickets to the NC State/UNC game, back in 2013, in Raleigh. I got to watch the Pack run the Heels out of the building. What a night!

      @NCMemoryMakers  Рік тому +1

      If there is a campground out that way, I'm not aware of where it is.
      The drive from town isn't really too bad. Yes, it is a curvy road, but it's only about 10 miles from the main highway.
      And there may be a campground out there somewhere, but I just don't know where it is.

      Just go up to Cheeks Crossroads and get on 268. Stay on it until the road forks, and you will stay to the left. I think it is even called Buffalo Cove Road.
