The only Christmas gift I ask for from my mother is a subscription to the Our State magazine, which always profiles and highlights small towns, cities, nature spots, restauratns, etc all over the state. It enables us to do little day trips to small towns we’ve not heard of (our rule: a destination should at least have one good restaurant and a brewery or pub), and gives us a good drive through country we’ve never seen. (One of the little towns we went to had a brewery that specialized in deviled egg entrees, so of course we had to try that.)

When we have a free day coming up, I’ll look at the magazine’s web site (all their articles are online), search on a town within about 50 miles of us, and decide on a destination. And of course, in our own area (Research Triangle Park), there are probably 100 new things that have popped up in the last 10 years we could go to.
