[Tarheel Tink]

Coastal Carteret County (Crystal Coast) here! Wildwood outside of Morehead City since the late 60s, but still not native!

 

[SweetMeg]

Hi, I thought I would bring this thread back to life and add myself to the list!

I'm a NC native, born outside of Elizabeth City near the coast. Just graduated from NC State in May (another one for the good guys!), and working in North Raleigh at a financial advising firm. I just bought a house north of 540, which is exciting, but scary. I've lived around the NCSU area for the last 5 years and N. Raleigh seems like a different world!

Did that NC Dis meeting ever materialize, or are there plans for another? I would love to do this!

 

[HockeyKat]

I am north of 540, but on the Durham side... just barely. Near the intersection of 540/70.

We never did a meet that I was aware of!!

 

[DVC Mike]

Native Californian here ... relocated to Charlotte, NC.

 

[TiggerMan2007]

We are relocated yankees living in Holly Springs. We have been here three years now, and I don't think we could ever go back north!

That is my DW.........she forget to mention we are Tarheel Fans as well......sorry Wolfpack folks.......but living in NC you have to choose.....UNC, DUKE, or NC State?? Some of our best friends are Wolfpackers!

Anyways, we do love it here in NC and we love Disney even more, that's why we bought DVC, as you can see from our trips, we have many trips to the most magical place on earth and we now seem to be on pace to visit 3 times a year!!!

And for those that don't know....Holly Springs borders Apex, Fuquay-Varina and Cary.

See you all real soon!

My dad was transferred to Seymour Johnson AFB (Goldsboro) 25 years ago; I consider it home and myself a southern girl even though I've lived all over the world. Met my military DH while he was stationed at Seymour Johnson (he is from the Boone area so he didn't get too far away from home.)

Currently the Air Force has us stationed in Alaska for a couple more years, but we are counting down the days until we retire and get back home.

It's funny, but we we run into a lot of North Carolina transplants in Alaska...people we talk to say it feels like home but with snow and negative temperatures!

We've been members since 1993 and have lived in Raleigh since 1996 - North of 540 near Triangle Town Center. I'm fairly certain I know HockeyKat I've been a lurker on the boards for many many many years but dont really get a chance to post (as evidenced by nonexistant post count)

 

[jimmytammy]

I am a Wolfpacker but can tolerate the Tarheels. At least they have a couple of good restaurants in their town, Rathskellar and Mama Dips. My DW is a Tarheeler so it gets intersting around our house, but all in good fun. We pretty much sum up how we feel about Duke with this slogan...Friends dont let friends got to Duke.

Hi guys!!! I am a native-born NC. I was born in Salisbury, NC (in between Greensboro and Charlotte) lived in China Grove, Robbins (near Pinehurst), Wilmington, Mt. Holly, and now Kannapolis. I am in Nursing school about to finish in 2 months and my DH works in Greensboro. I figure here soon I will be moving to Greensboro. We just bought into AKV this past January!! We will be going for our first trip home this May.

Oh! Another thing about me--I am a Tarheel fan!!!

 

[sajetto]

I am in Greenville.

I lived there for 5 years while attending ECU. I also met my husband there who is a native of Williamston. As soon as I was finished with college I took him straight back with me to Ashe County.

 

[edwardscpfd]

I am in Greenville.

Glad to see another from ENC (the forgotten section)!!

We're over here in New Bern about 30 min from Atlantic Beach and 2 hours from Raliegh...

I know the Wolfpackers and Tarheels will get after me for this one but...

GO PIRATES!

Wow, lots of NC folks!

We're from Kernersville. We're not "officially" DVC owners yet, but we are waiting on ROFR for a BCV contract right now, so hopefully in the coming weeks!

We're also natives. I grew up in High Point (where PooooohBear works), DH grew up in Winston-Salem. We lived in Midway, between Lexington & Winston-Salem for about 10 yrs, then moved to K-ville almost 5 yrs ago.

We're Wake Forest fans -- go Deacs!

We are also in Cary and I have several friends that work for Rex Healthcare in Cary! In fact I used to work there! Small world.....

We moved here from S FL a little more than 10 years ago. I do miss FL. I am also a Yankee, born in NY, raised in RI.

When we were in Apex my son's pediatrician was at Rex Healthcare in Cary - small world! We're now in Wake Forest north of 540.
