Storms > Canadian smoke

Back in the 1920s the slogan of the Chamber was Watch Charlotte Grow.  

this is a modern photo for that old time slogan.  I see 5 cranes in this shot.

Not all the Charlotte metro area is paved over.  This cotton field which looks great is just 16 miles as the crow flies from uptown Charlotte in Cabarrus County.  Was noticing today how all of the row crops (corn, cotton, soybeans etc) looking really good this year with ample rainfall.   Will go back in late October early November when the cotton will be fully developed.

Pond is at a Cabarrus County park.  

Pind is beautiful and living in Cabarrus County I am stumped as to which park it's at? It's not Frank Liske but do tell.

 

Cotton fields in the south just make me cringe. The history surrounding them is just so heavy imo. The photo is beautiful however. It's always nice to see a green and lush summer in the South regardless.

It was hot, but a few cold beers helped cool me down.

Views from the west side are the best side.  Today various westside skyline views.  Ignore any power lines and at least you can be sure these are not AI generated photos.

New Tesla Supercharger above Trader Joe at Metropolitan. Beautiful views but horrible parking deck

[KJHburg]

^^ as many decks as I have been in I have never been to the top floor of that one.  That is a great view.  I usually try to avoid that garage at all cost or take the first open spot I can find.

Thanks for the pic Tyrone!

Oh how I wish Charlotte Uptown was larger.  Even as magnificent pic as this is, I feel like some of the smaller buildings are hidden.  Still underrated none the less!

I always like these "walking" video tours, especially in foreign countries.  Here is a recent one from Birkdale up in Huntersville!
