This Resilient North Carolina Mountain Town Is Small, Scenic, And Well Worth The Drive

Here's how to plan a trip to Canton. Hurricane Helene did not spare the small town of Canton, North Carolina. The September 2024 storm swept through this part of Haywood County, and Canton, like other communities in Western North Carolina, experienced unimaginable flooding. Some of the homes and businesses along the Pigeon River, which flows through the downtown area, were destroyed or severely damaged. Canton, as well as the neighboring towns of Maggie Valley and Waynesville, did reopen in the months following, and responsible tourism is one of the best ways to support the area. Whether you're taking a day trip from Asheville—about a 30-minute drive away—or spending a long weekend in the area, a visit to this historic mill town will leave you enthralled with its charm and beauty. Explore the well-stocked shelves at Blue Moon Books, pick up some baked goods at Grateful Table Cafe & Provisions, and hike along the Blue Ridge Parkway. Or, you can align your trip with the longest-running Labor Day celebration in the South, Canton's largest annual event. Interested in planning a trip this year? Here are our picks for the best things to do in Canton. What to Do Peruse an Independent Bookstore One of the marks of a great Southern small town is a bookstore. While walking around downtown Canton, you'll spot Blue Moon Books, a used bookstore with not only a great selection of reads, but book signings, cozy corners, and fun merch you can take home as a Canton souvenir. 109 Main St, Canton, NC 28716 Celebrate Labor Day The Canton Labor Day Festival has been an annual affair since 1906. With a parade, live music, a handcraft expo, and food trucks, the two-day event is your chance to see Canton at its liveliest. This year, the festival lineup of musical acts includes headliner Craig Morgan, Outlaw Whiskey, and Balsam Range, and attendees will also get to experience the car cruise-in, dock jumping, and a dedicated kid zone with face painting and a splash pad. Pick Your Own Fruit and Veggies A visit to The Ten Acre Garden is something the whole family will enjoy. Depending on the season, visitors are welcome to pick their own sunflowers, blackberries, strawberries, and a selection of veggies growing in the garden. On select dates, the farm also offers hay wagon farm tours, goat yoga, and outdoor painting in the garden. 148 Chambers Farm Ln, Canton, NC 28716 Go Waterfall Chasing Waterfalls are one of Western North Carolina's most stunning natural features, so you'll likely encounter a few on your trip. To combine a waterfall sighting with a short hike, venture to Moore Cove Waterfall. Located in the Pisgah National Forest, off the Blue Ridge Parkway, the waterfall is a short drive from Canton, and the hike is less than a mile (or around 1.5 miles round-trip). Spend an Afternoon on the Lake Although Lake Logan was greatly impacted by Hurricane Helene, it has since reopened to guests and visitors, and day passes as well as annual passes are available for purchase. With a $20 day pass ($10 for kids ages 12 to 17 and free for those 11 and under), you can access the hiking trails, picnic areas, lake, boats, paddles, and life jackets. Fishing passes are $30 per adult. 25 Wormy Chestnut Lane, Canton, NC, 28716 Where to Eat and Drink Start Your Morning at Papertown Coffee No matter what your ideal day in Canton includes, it's a good idea to kick things off with a caffeinated beverage from Papertown Coffee. The independent coffee shop's drink menu features all the classics—cold brew, a matcha latte, and an iced Americano—and you can pair your drink with a breakfast burrito, bagel, or croissant. 457 Main St, Canton, NC 28716 Have Lunch at Grateful Table Cafe & Provisions After working up an appetite hiking or paddling around Lake Logan, head to Grateful Table Cafe & Provisions. As its name implies, the Main Street staple is both somewhere to dine and a place you can pick up a variety of essentials—everything from pantry goods to produce. Food is served from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and the menu features items like a taco salad, toasted sandwiches, and a curried chicken salad. 473 Main St, Canton, NC 28716 Fill Up on Southern Delicacies for Dinner Downtown Canton is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, and there's nowhere better to get a glimpse of the town's past than Southern Porch. Located inside the Imperial Hotel building, which dates back to 1876, the restaurant has indoor seating and a porch and patio. Choose from the likes of barbeque, hushpuppies, and shrimp and grits, or go for the Carolina cheesesteak or the ramp bacon jam burger. 449 Main St, Canton, NC 28716 Where to Stay Unwind at a Mountain Resort If you're searching for peace and quiet, book one of the 15 guest units at Springdale Resort. Formerly a country club, the resort has an 18-hole golf course, a heated pool, nature trails, a fitness center, and two different dining venues for guests to enjoy. Those traveling with a larger family can reserve one of the spacious villas, while smaller groups will enjoy the cozier Sycamore Cottage. 200 Golfwatch Rd, Canton, NC 28716 Rent a Cabin Renting a standalone cabin is another popular option in the Canton area. This family-friendly cabin sleeps up to eight guests and has a hot tub overlooking the creek (not to mention, amazing mountain views). Or, go completely off-grid at this sustainable treehouse that sits on 23 acres shared by a herd of Highland cows. Read the original article on Southern Living Solve the daily Crossword

Humor: The 5 levels of kid summer awesomeness

If life were like a video game. School's out!! Nearly three months of no classes, no homework, and no reason that failure to repeatedly get up in the morning will result in truancy charges and a possible civil court appearance for parents. Woo-hoo! The world is every kid's oyster. Or at least like a real-life video game until Labor Day. Level 1: Freedom! The summer game's default mode and the first level played by any kid or teen when school gets out. Master this level by: Opening the refrigerator at least 17 times a day for any reason at all Having a sleepover, but not sleeping Offering, or attempting, to wrestle someone or braid their hair Maximizing screen time use on all available devices Obstacles to avoid: Invitations to go to the library or a bookstore, which may result in accidental possession of books or, worse, math workbooks Mentioning the word 'bored,' which may result in the assignment of chores Level 2: Camp Adventures Getting up and leaving the house before 9 a.m. looks a lot like going to school, but don't be fooled! Instead of teachers, on this level, teenage counselors impart questionable wisdom and introduce new vocabulary instead. Master this level by: Coming home covered in mud, tempura paint, glitter, and/or soaking wet Surviving an itchy bug bite, a splinter, and/or an encounter with a tick Burning a marshmallow to a blackened crisp, but still eating it Alternatively, simply by attending a week or more of sleepaway camp Obstacles to avoid: Spraying bug spray or sunscreen in their mouth (Yuck!!) Learning the hard way what poison ivy looks like (Ouch!!) BONUS: Pick up an Honorary Theological Degree Badge by attending a free local Vacation Bible School. Comes with a t-shirt and rubber wristband saying God loves annoying people too. Level 3: Possibly Feral This level is often reached after aging out of summer camp but before legal employability. Master this level by: Successfully chasing an ice cream truck in time to buy a treat with sweat-drenched dollars Spying on unsuspecting neighbors or trying to build a treehouse out of particle board found in their garbage Drinking from the hose and/or eating only popsicles for lunch Rinsing off with water from a creek, pond, ocean, lake, fireplug, sprinkler, or swimming pool for an entire week instead of showering Obstacles to avoid: Petty theft, even if it's an item badly needed Trying to start a fire, even if it's really, really tempting BONUS: Pick up an Arts & Crafts Badge by making string bracelets with embroidery thread, tie-dying a shirt, constructing something out of popsicle sticks, or painting rocks. Level 4*: Retro Vision This secret summer level can only be accessed by getting a perfect score on Level 3, staying home all week while parents go on vacation, or teleporting to the 20th Century. Master this level by: Carrying a watermelon to gain access to a party Getting life advice from a Chevy Chase look-alike while working as a caddy Falling in love with the girl or boy who just moved in next door Helping solve a crime or uncovering a conspiracy while becoming friends with a septuagenarian Obstacles to avoid: Swimming somewhere posted 'no swimming' if the sign is there for a good reason Getting caught trespassing at a shuttered and/or condemned former factory/electrical plant now housing a booming underground illegal business Level 5: Vampire It takes many years of summer practice to make it here! The obstacles to achievement require stamina, an allergy to adult opinion, and a seriously disrupted circadian rhythm. Master this level by: Sleeping more than 15 hours straight and/or going an entire day without seeing the sun or sky Doordashing a Frappuccino (just a Frappuccino) for $15.27 Complaining about having a full-time job while working fewer than 15 hours a week Somehow getting incredibly sunburned Obstacles to avoid: Being in the room any time a parent or other adult mentions the words 'college applications' Getting caught doing the 'reverse Jesus' in the liquor cabinet with a bottle of vodkaBut it will always be remembered fondly!

'So grateful to be here': Bedford County Fair begins with rides, rope tricks and agriculture displays

BEDFORD, Pa. – On one end of the Bedford County Fairgrounds, Garrett Hubbard, of New Paris, displayed his Oxford sheep named 'The Lone Ranger,' which occasionally let out a quiet bleat. A little while later, on the opposite side of the property, Andy Rotz put on his high-energy, fast-paced Wild West Show, complete with rocking loud music, rope tricks and fire. In between, there were rides, foods, games and award-winning agriculture displays as the Bedford County Fair got underway Sunday. Bedford County Fair Chainsaw artist Ben Rannels, owner of Rannels Rustics, works on a sculpture during the Bedford County Fair on Sunday, July 20, 2025. Approximately 40,000 people are expected to attend the week-long event that is now in its 151st year, said John Holbert, vice president of the Bedford County Fair board of directors. 'I think, a lot of times, with things changing as they are in the world, people like to see something that's been here for a long time,' Holbert said. Rotz, the Guinness World Record holder for consecutive lasso Texas skips at 11,123, is making his first appearance at the fair. Bedford County Fair Andy Rotz performs his Wild West Show during the Bedford County Fair on Sunday, July 20, 2025. 'We're just so grateful to be here,' said Rotz, a Maryland native. 'The fair is, to me, the best part of America. You've got the agriculture, God, country and animals, and just all the patriotism. Being part of that is a real honor.' Hubbard was one of the first people to display an animal at this year's fair. 'It's definitely great learning about animals, trying to become more knowledgable,' said Hubbard, a rising senior at Chestnut Ridge High School. 'It just gives you more experiences, gets you out there in front of people. I value it. It's a really good time, really good experience. I'm trying to push younger generations to come out here and do the same thing, and get that knowledge, get that experience.' Bedford County Fair Garrett Hubbard, from New Paris, displays his lamb, The Lone Ranger, during the Bedford County Fair on Sunday, July 20, 2025. Lambs, hogs, cows and other animals were all raised and displayed by local 4-H participants. 'The youth programs are very important because it not only gives youth an opportunity to learn about the different aspects of agriculture, but more importantly, it's building life skills for them,' said Melanie Barkley, an educator with Penn State Extension. 'They're learning responsibility, financial management. They learn to communicate with that club. These are all skills they'll be able to use as adults.' There is plenty of entertainment planned, too, including Ben Rannels, owner of Rannels Rustics, making and selling chainsaw art. '(People) love to see a piece of wood go from a piece of wood to a bear (or other animal) in 20 minutes,' Rannels said. 'It kind of blows their mind. For me, it's so gratifying. You turn all this from a log to a piece of art. It's better than sitting around pushing a pencil.' The fair is scheduled to continue through Saturday at the fairgrounds, west of downtown Bedford at 729 W. Pitt St. For the complete schedule of events, visit Solve the daily Crossword
