What a beautiful day. Sunshine, delft blue skies, an occasional whispy cloud ... God certainly made this day just for us.
We set out to explore the Occoneechee Mountain State Nature Area. A beautiful, yet somewhat overlooked, area that is rich in history.
The Occoneechee Indians, according to a host at the state park, are one of the oldest tribes in the Carolinas and Virginia. Allegedly coming to reside here in the 1500s.
Located just west of the town of Hillsborough, North Carolina, this incredible park is a hidden gem.
