Some of the most memorable trips or vacations can be to places that people may call “in the middle of nowhere.” Once we find them we hope no one else will, or we hope that at least they will remain as they were when we found them.

But we know that every place changes. Places that are out of the mainstream may change more gradually than the popular destinations. And we have chosen to protect some places as parks and reserves.

We are lucky in North Carolina to have many places that are off the beaten path. Tourists haven’t even seen some of them. I can think of a few that I especially enjoy (but I’m not telling where they are).

Plenty of our readers were willing to tell us about their favorite out-of-the-way vacations. Following are a few stories that were selected for publication. You can also submit your own. Thanks to everyone who submitted stories for this month.
