Went to the NHS football games at the County Stadium.
Went to Italian Pizzaria and Honey's after the game.
Jimmy's Grill for breakfast and burgers.
High school graduation at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Eno River to get away from it all.
The zillion field trips to the Musuem of Life and Science.
McDonalds playground at Northgate.
Shopping at Northgate when it was a real mall.
Shopping at South Square when it was a mall.
Shopping at North Duke when it was an indoor mall.

So many more but will have to finish when I have access to a computer.
