Returned From North Carolina . . . .

. . . . with the Scarlet Wife. Four days with large numbers of her family members.

Now, don't get me wrong, I LIKE North Carolina. I really do. It is, after all, the home of barbeque, even if they continue to insist on no sugar or tomato in their sauce.

But I digress . . .

I like the place. But one does see some strange things only moments away from the Interstate. We drove past one place that announced:

BIGGEST PORK DISPLAY IN THE WORLD
And one cannot help but wonder what THAT might entail.
[UPDATE]: No, I'm not making this up. And YES, it was a retail establishment that sold pork, pork products, and the like.
