A good friend of mine (a Michigander!) alerted me to this wonderfully old TV piece, "Meet North Carolina." This US Archives piece from the 1950s takes us back to a time where people hiked the Blue Ridge in suits, ties and dresses!
Here's the desccription:
The grandeur of the Great Smokies, the rolling beauty of the Blue Ridge, the historic North Carolina coast are brought to the screen in superb natural color. You'll visit Manteo, to witness scenes from the "Lost Colony" pageant. You'll explore the picturesque but little·known Outer Banks. You'll see and hear one of the famous tobacco auctioneers as he conducts a tobacco sale. You'll be shown a panorama of year-round sports, against a back-drop of gorgeous scenery from mountain top to blue sea.
I mean, it's not wrong at all! Enjoy the trip down memory lane!
