https://www.ourstate.com/joyce-kilmer-memorial-forest
Home & Gardens. Our State T.V. Show. Into the Forest: Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest. Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest is 3,800 acres of unchecked wilderness. Here, centuries-old trees scrape the sky and shelter a natural world that reminds us of our place on this planet. Green street signs what few there are begin appearing in both English and Cherokee, indicating that you’re close to the Snowbird Community, an outlying band of the Cherokee tribe, but these are the only real signs of human habitation. Sadly, ...

https://www.ourstate.com/jim-avett
Home & Gardens. Our State T.V. Show. Playing by Heart: The Story of Jim Avett. Jim Avett’s life is a song with many verses, but it always returns to the chorus a hard-working father with a passion for music. Editor’s note: This story originally appeared in the March 2011 issue. Avett now has less time for farming himself, ever since he revved up his own long-dormant music career. For most of his 63 years, Avett treated music as a hobby instead of a profession.

Home & Gardens. Our State T.V. Show. Photo Essay: Lake Lure, Jade Jewel in the West. You catch glimpses, now and then, from the twists and curves of the winding road that sometimes does, and sometimes doesn’t, outline Lake Lure’s contours: a deep green liquid below, a quicksilver slice of shine. Is that the cove? Was it there, that. Come on in, the water’s fine. So is the breathtaking view from high in Chimney Rock State Park. Learning to dance isn’t so different, after all, from learning to water ski...

https://www.ourstate.com/fulgurite
Home & Gardens. Our State T.V. Show. How Fulgurite Forms When Lightning Hits Sand. Most people don’t notice the gray lumps. They look like concrete leftovers, not particularly attractive, even for a rock. But Phil Greene sees something more as he walks the beach along Corolla. When he picks up fulgurite, he’s holding petrified energy. And that’s worth holding on to. Editor’s note: This story appeared in the April 2011 issue of.

Art’s Place — Our State Magazine
https://www.ourstate.com/arts-place
Home & Gardens. Our State T.V. Show. Tammy Nichols has owned and operated the Kitty Hawk restaurant since 2008, but customers don’t have to look very hard to see the essence of the burger joint Art Glidden built 30 years ago. The squat building is scarcely as big as a pair of double-wide trailers squished together. It sits on the beach road, its worn porch facing the sea, with only N.C. Highway 12’s narrow band of asphalt and a row of oceanfront houses holding back the wilds of the Atlantic. Much as it w...
