In an effort to help North Carolina-based readers like you feel more connected, we’ve thought up something fun called “My North Carolina Window.” Through this collection of photo submissions, we hope you get to see some new spots throughout our state and come away inspired to get out there and do more exploring when able.
My North Carolina Window: Community Photo Submissions
Because looking out your own window or deep into the eyes of your partner can get boring, we wanted to give you a chance to share photos from your view in North Carolina.

Kingstown

“Funny backstory to this guest submission. Early in the morning on my last day in Cleveland County, I tried to truck it up Crowder’s Mountain to sunrise (pro tip- don’t. The sun doesn’t rise on that side!) But while at the top trying to catch my breath I met this incredible woman who was giving everyone she saw words of encouragement. She was so easy to talk to and just a person who was infectious.”
Melissa lives in Kingstown and runs an animal rescue called Marino Tails. If you are looking for an animal who has been given more love than you could imagine to be your fur-ever friend, check out her Facebook Page!
