Scott Mason of WRAL TV in Raleigh fea­tures small towns and for­got­ten cor­ners of North Car­olina four days a week. They’ve just pro­filed Saluda, part of my old Polk County stomp­ing grounds. It’s cer­tainly hokey when you put it on TV, but Saluda is a pretty spe­cial place. Not shown in the video, but one of my favorite places in the world is Ward’s Grill. The place is a time warp, I absolutely love it. Next time I’m pass­ing through I’ll have to take my cam­era and get some pho­tos to go with my milk­shake and cheeseburger.

WRAL also fea­tured the Tryon Daily Bul­letin, but that video isn’t link­able yet. I’ll post it when it is.
