Choosing a Local Preschool

If you are thinking about signing your toddler up for preschool next Fall, applications are being accepted now. Here are some tips on how to make the preschool selection process much easier.
Best-Priced Gasoline

The Chapel Hill Recorder is here to help you save money at the pump by finding the best-priced gasoline in the Chapel Hill/Carrboro area every day.
The Rural Buffer

One of my favorite pastimes is to head out of town for a scenic bike ride or drive in the country. Thanks to the Rural Buffer, this beautiful countryside is just a few minutes away.
Old Greensboro Road

My all-time favorite country drive actually starts within the town limits of Carrboro, NC. Just take a right onto Old Greensboro Road, and enjoy the immediate rural landscape.
Calvander Loop

One of the most scenic drives in the Chapel Hill area I call the Calvander Loop, because it begins and ends at Calvander Food Mart, located at 108 Dairyland Road, Chapel Hill, NC, on the corner of Highway Old NC 86.
Chapel Hill Leather Shop

As a child, one of my favorite places to visit was the Chapel Hill Leather Shop at 133 1/2 East Franklin Street.
