They have a band playing every Fri.& Sat. night in the middle of the shopping center & you can relax with a glass of wine!).

Ok I'll swing over and get movn2nc and we'll visit that Promenade too, it's closer to Jerseymom so she can come too. I can't wait this is gonna be fun

Ok Maryann you have to come check out Birkdale I'm still in AZ so don't be jealous of me just yet. Although righ now I am stuck in a Wilmington hotel with a broken ankle(long story) I am having a house built 7 miles from Birkdale in Cabarrus county right over the Mecklenberg county line low taxes something like 1000 for every 100,000. Huntersville will be more in Taxes Mooresville which is in Iredell is a tad more in taxes than Cabarrus.

Sorry to hear about your ankle.....how is Cabarrus county for schools?...I'm sure that has been asked a million times but I discounted Charlotte because I was looking at Union County and I am NOT a fan of uniforms in schools and they seem to be overly concerned about that...?....I just found out a former student of my fathers is a teacher in Charlotte (Dad was a teacher) so I'm going to get in touch with her and hopefully get some info....What are the towns that are in Cabarrus county that you have looked at and why did you settle in on building in Cabarrus?...Houseing prices? size lots? sorry for so many questions...just trying to get all info from all angles....when we make a trip down there we will have our kids so half our minds will be gone and need to focus as much as possible on narrowing the search BEFORE we get there...the one thing I know we wil find out is where Burger King and Toys R Us are... LOL!
Thanks, Maryann
