Mary and I were going to visit the NC Transportation Museum, but Easter Weekend had other ideas.
On our way up for our daytrip, we called ahead and found that the museum was hosting special events for Easter, and while they were open, they would be more expensive, and would be inundated with something called "children". So we pivoted.
Instead, we just took an afternoon in downtown Salisbury, which was really quite nice!
Started at the Rowan County Museum, where a nice lady talked us through the various rooms they had available:
And got to go out on the upstairs balcony:
to see the view of the megalopolis that is Salisbury.
I did enjoy the museum; it was just right for a county museum, a smattering of history, a couple neat displays:
We then ventured around town, seeing a church:
and then a park with a part of what used to be a church:
and a tunnel:
then crossed through the main street area, where there are wall murals!
we were hoping to stop in at an art gallery recommended to us by the museum lady, but it was closed for Good Friday. So pretty soon we turned around and headed back.
