SO what are some fun, liberal-type things to do in the Triad area?
Around Greensboro. Best pizza? Veg restaurants? Independent book store/coffeeshop(s)? Indian cuisine? Hair salons?

I see the Democratic Party is strong in that area. That makes a nice change.

Any suggestions are appreciated!

7. May 28 Clemmons NC NC Wine Festival
I went the second year they had it. It was barely attended. Now, it's like Woodstock! :rofl:

I'm going to try to talk the SO into going this year. Wine isn't his thing, but he will go for the food and fun. :-)
