A DAY TRIP TO ASHEBORO, BEYOND THE ZOO… Melissa Howsam for Triangle Today Here are 10 places you’ll want to make the trip to Asheboro worthwhile. Richland Creek Canopy Tours Want more wilderness with a side of thrill? Just three miles from the zoo, soar through the foothills via this 14-station zipline (1.5-plus miles of cable). NC Aviation Museum & Hall of Fame Take your day trip to new heights (get it?) at this home to historic “Flitfire” (that Orville Wright flew) — a treasure trove of all things aviation (think artifacts, war memorabilia and more). American Classic Motorcycle Museum Hog heaven? Maybe. Hog fans will want to save time for a stop in the American Classic Motorcycle Museum (a small spot above a local diner), with a display old Harleys and plenty of moto memorabilia to boot. Four Saints Brewing Company Belly up at this local brewhouse that’s “making great beer for great people since 2015,” with up to 15 beers on tap and recent winner of four NC Brewers’ Cup medals. Pottery If glaze ’n’ kiln is your thing, Seagrove (about 9 miles south of the zoo) is a potter’s paradise, home to the nation’s largest community of potters. Literally sitting at the end of the “Pottery Highway” (NC 705) that runs from Pinehurst to Seagrove, the Seagrove section is a must visit when nearby, whether its Seagove Creations Pottery Gallery, North Carolina Pottery Center, Jugtown Pottery and more.
Pisgah Covered Bridge Both a local and federal historic landmark, this wooden covered bridge that spans the west fork of the Little River is one of two remaining North Carolina covered bridges. Birkhead Mountains Wilderness If you’re feeling foresty — think hiking, camping and more — find your inner wild child in the Birkhead Mountain Wilderness, established by the 1984 North Carolina Wilderness Act, covers over 5,000 acres in the Uwharrie National Forest. Tot Hill Farm Golf Club Time for nine or 18? Swing by Mike Strantz-designed Tot Hill Farm Golf Club, Rated 4.5 Stars 2008-2009 & ranked the 7th Hardest Course in America by Golf Digest, for a round.

After five seasons, “A Chef’s Life” ends with a one-hour finale Monday, Oct. 22. Baxter Miller From sweet corn to cornbread and collards to cracklins, Vivian Howard’s PBS TV show, “A Chef’s Life,” brought the delicacies of the South to life and made the Kinston chef a star. After five seasons, the Emmy- and Peabody-winning show will end this month with a one-hour finale. The “Harvest Special,” airing Monday, Oct. 22, looks back on the five years of the show, the cast of Lenoir County characters woven into the episodes and a couple more iconic ingredients overlooked until now: chow chow and paw paws.

Farmer to opening two other restaurants; and building a television career. This summer, Howard and Durhambased Markay Media announced last year’s fifth season would be the show’s last, but promised a proper send-off with the Harvest Special.

It all builds to a final meal at a long table in a dusty dry cornfield, gathering just about every regular since the show began in 2013.
