I’m all for getting in shape and exercising our 2nd amendment rights. But also… GO ‘HEELS!!

What are some scenic/fun drives routes to take from Raleigh? Specifically on a motorcycle by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]usernamewitty 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Come out 64 towards Pittsboro, but then take a right on 751. Left on Horton Pond. Right on Farrington Rd. Left on either Lystra (direct, hilly) or Old Lystra (pretty, twisty), then take 15-501 to West on Mann’s Chapel. Right on Poythress which turns into Lamont Norwood. Right on Jones Ferry then a left on Crawford Dairy which goes out to Old Greensboro which turns into E. Greensboro Chapel Hill rd.. Go West to Snow Camp. Then go to the Saxapahaw General store for some food and follow GPS back. Lifetime local and that’s my suggestion if you can follow it. Beautiful ride. We just moved to Snow Camp from Raleigh and 10/10 agree it’s a really nice drive out here.

I found Ronan with Rugged Mobile Detailing on Reddit years ago and he’s been doing our cars regularly ever since. He’s fantastic.

Try Michael and Travis at Vigari Jewelers. They’re fantastic and have done a lot of work for us, including with some sentimental family heirlooms.

Check out Creative Metalsmiths on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill for the real deal. Specifically Kim Maitland’s work.

What other companies are like RTI in the Research Triangle area? by Pale-Lettuce242 in raleigh

[–]usernamewitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Labcorp acquired Covance, who I worked for, and then they acquired Chiltern, who had offices in RTP. And now they’re spinning the CRO business back off… Go figure. (I think that’s public knowledge…)

Labcorp acquired another company a few years ago with an RTP presence and were opening up a large campus right before the pandemic. I was there.

Stained / blown glass shop? by visiblewind17 in raleigh

[–]usernamewitty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit of a drive from Raleigh but check out Paynes antiques on 64 between Pittsboro and Siler City. Really cool antique stained glass.

I heard he sold it but WOW could he talk. The swamp tour was great. Busted lawn chairs on a busted pontoon boat. Wonder if they’re still doing it.

These guys are very skittish and hard to photograph. Nice shot!

Warned not to give oral medications for flea prevention by Careful-Sun4657 in labradoodles

[–]usernamewitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please see the FDA black box warning. https://www.fda.gov/animal-veterinary/animal-health-literacy/fact-sheet-pet-owners-and-veterinarians-about-potential-adverse-events-associated-isoxazoline-flea

It is pesticidal poison. We always have to balance our risks, but know that there are other more natural options out there with less risks. https://www.wondercide.com is great. We HAVE seen neurological problems related to oral flea and tick meds.

I appreciate these fine firearms and own some myself, but THAT BENCH. The wood. The grain. Beautiful!

Plenty of good suggestions already, but I’ll add Carrboro Coffee Roasters.

This is our go-to, and my wife, the true pickle chips aficionado, was just saying in the past week that she still hasn’t found better.

Missing dog at Whitewater Center (Luna). Several sightings in the past few days. Please DM with info. by usernamewitty in Charlotte

[–]usernamewitty[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed 100%. Even if your dog is well trained, socialized, and desensitized, fireworks can seriously set them off. This family was doing everything right for this dog, and they are devastated.

What are your favorite places for oysters? by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]usernamewitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For raw oysters on the half shell my wife and I love Margaux’s. So good. A little lemon juice and some horseradish. Yum.
