Bill Leslie: Bloggin' it

Longtime WRAL-TV personality (and giften musician) Bill Leslie is proud of his home state. His blog, "Tar Heel Traveler," on WRAL.com shows that. Leslie is adept at describing and promoting the people and places that he visits in his journeys across North Carolina.

In recent posts, Leslie has talked-up the mountain town of Hendersonville, where he stayed at the Echo Mountain Inn (I can attest to the quality of that place); the stylings of musicians Bet and Rob Mangum ("it felt like a homecoming of dear friends or family," he wrote); and the coastal wonders of Pine Knoll Shores ("And by all means when you're in the area go for the shrimp and grits at Clawson's 1905 on the Beaufort waterfront!").

It's hard to argue with that logic.
