C Grier Beam Truck Museum

Today we had our final Christmas break outing, when Charlie, June, Adam, Mason, and I headed to Cherryville, to visit the Carolina Freight Museum.  I have wanted to go since I first heard about it years ago, and it really was fun.  It wasn’t real big, but the kids seemed to enjoy it, too.  We were especially excited to hear that Carolina Freight was one of the main haulers when they started building the NASA station at Cape Canaveral, since that’s where we’re going on vacation in just a few months 🙂

The man was very nice who was volunteering there today, and didn’t bug us, but checked on us a couple of times to see if we had any questions or needed any help. He had the kids look and see how many bulldogs they could find in the truck display, since the modern era trucks were all built by Mack Truck. And they found them all 🙂
