Stop by Winston Salem Passing Through from Michigan

Post image
• Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am a social justice walking activist from Michigan. I was heading to Raleigh for the NC state fair do walking my activism last weekend. So, by chance on Friday night I randomly stop in Winston Salem for a short stop. I ended up in downtown. Although I don't celebrate Halloween, I did notice they had a Halloween event going on. I want shout out to the city and organizers of the event, I thought it was cool as heck as an out stater. I notice people were pretty progressive at the event for a city in the South, and a few were very friendly. I want give props to the middle aged police officer there (As I am not a fan of police) he was down to earth and mingling with the community rather just standing around watching he even greeted me. I than went Camel City BBQ, wow restaurant has one of the best collard greens and Greek pita sandwich I had in my life, very loud SHOUT out to the staff as well. Although I was only there for 2 hours, I like the city just off those 2 events. FYI, I forgot to take a picture of myself in WS, so I took a photo of me in Raleigh, my apologizes.

I'm so sorry I'm so late on posting this guys, I wasn't able to find or reconnect them with their owners (had no microchips) but I've successfully re-homed them with a loving family and are happy and healthy and still together! They've had them for about 3 weeks now and they're thriving!! Thank you all so much for all of your help and resources 💜💜💜 I wasn't healthy enough myself to keep them but I'm keeping in contact with their new parents because they're sweeties (the parents and the dogs) so thank you again for your help 💜

I really love this tree behind the moravian church on main street and how it fits in with the layers of the blacktop, apartments, roofs, evergreens, and sky in the background. Had some luck with the red car in the foreground and yellow truck driving by.

What Do People Do For Fun Here?

36 Upvotes

I'm so bored. Everything in this city feels like it's designed for tourists or temporary travelers. I'm smack dab down town and it feels like theres just food and hotels. What do you actually do here? What is there to go do that doesnt cost my entire paycheck, isn't drinking or eating, and isnt just sight seeing in old salem? Where do you go to spend time?

Saunas?

6 Upvotes

Is there anywhere in Winston Salem that has a real sauna/cold plunge?

There are several (at least 3) that have infrared saunas, but these are not real saunas if you ask me. No steam, not hot enough. Charlotte Durham and Raleigh have Sauna House locations, but we have nothing like that in the triad to my knowledge.

I bought this thinking it was blue and yellow but it's actually black. Does anyone have a similar jersey in blue and yellow they're looking to part with? I think any men's size will work.

Hit-and-run

32 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I was involved in a hit-and-run this morning, October 26, around 6:50 AM on I-40 West, approximately half a mile before Exit 211 (Gallimore Dairy Road). Greensboro
I was driving a red Honda CR-V when a black sedan changed lanes into my vehicle, striking my driver’s-side rear passenger door. The driver left without stopping.
I’m hoping someone commuting westbound toward Greensboro around 6:40–7:00 AM might have captured the incident or the black sedan on their dashcam.
I’ve filed a police report. If you witnessed anything or have footage, please send me a private message.
Thank you so much!

I just moved out of forsyth county and this is my first time being called. A couple days ago I did the form online to be excused since im no longer in the county. Should I just keep waiting? My date is in a less than a week and im worried bc I work the night before late (im a server) and won't have a way to get there. Should I be worried or just be patient? Excuse my anxiety im only 19 and ive never done this before. Any advice from better knowing adults is appreciated </3

Edit: I applied through the qr code provided on the paper for online submissions. Should I also do it online from another site or could that get me in trouble?
