A little spring in our step! ☀️

#OnThisDay in 1776, North Carolina became the first of the colonies to officially call for independence from Great Britain! The resolution became known as the #HalifaxResolves and THAT is why April 12th 1776 is on the North Carolina flag!

Look who we ran into during our photo session!
