A
reader who recently moved to Fayetteville wrote
Kelly and me a very kind e-mail, coining our city
"Fayettenice". I agree with this sentiment as I am sure you
do too. The spirit of Fayettenice extends to other parts of Cumberland County as well. Though I haven't had the opportunity to explore it
thoroughly (I've barely made it past Haymount), the stories inspire me to
explore anything and everything within the county lines. One thing that all
of these places have in common is their own sense of community, like the
three generation family-run floral business in Stedman or that iconic Greek
eatery on Raeford Road.
Next time you're out at your neighborhood's small business, whether it be
a cafe or dry cleaners, ask them how their vision began. Chances are you'll
learn something new about those who dwell in your own community as I
have about my newly beloved historic Haymount.
