After a very busy week of organizing, Raymond and I decided to get out of the apartment on Saturday. We were considering anything that allowed us to enjoy the beautiful fall-like day and take Cody along.
We decided to head up to Lake Norman. He thought we were going to Birkdale Village … which we ended our day there. But I had other plans. I wanted to check out Downtown Davidson. I have several clients who live in Davidson, and I have always admired the quaint downtown as I pass by.
After parking, we took a nice long stroll on Davidson College‘s campus. It was beautiful! Slightly reminded us of UNC’s campus with a Williamsburg feel. We walked … and walked … and walked.
Next up was a trip downtown. I was dying to go into the shops like Monkee’s and The Village Store. But with a pup in tow, I drooled from afar.
We weren’t hungry but I would like to try their restaurants. The patios were packed and the air smelled of lunch delight. 🙂
I’m thinking Christmas in Davidson is a must-see event for us this year! 🙂
