“Cary-dise”   

It’s hard for me to name all of the things we like about living in Cary NC, but from this family-of-three’s point of view, Cary is truly our little paradise.

As with most families, our world mostly revolves around our 8-year old and his daily activities and Cary offers us a lot of advantages given our hobbies and schedule.  If we take a look at a snapshot of a typical day in our lives during the Summer Holiday, it is easy to see why we love Cary.

 

A typical Cary NC Summer Day:

8 AM:  My wife Lisa and son Fitz sleep in a bit. I leave our residence in MacGregor Downs, a 40-year old neighborhood with large wooded lots, that is “five minutes to anywhere”.  After a short nine-minute commute I arrive at my office near the RBC Center.  Lisa and I own BLADE CommStrategies, Inc. a communications consulting company.  We help small companies and organizations grow by sharpening their competitive edge. We have a number of clients, a few including LG Real Estate are located right in Cary.

930 AM: Lisa joins me at our office.  Fitz is up and spending time with his grandmother.

11 AM: “Gram” and Fitz make the two-minute trip to meet his friends at the pool over at MacGregor Downs Country Club to stay for a few hours.  They have lunch there.

12 Noon: Lisa and I head out for lunch – usually in downtown Cary – at one of a gazillion choices including Serendipity, The Food Factory, or Mia’s.

530 PM: Lisa and I get home and it’s time for some evening fun. We might grab Fitz and head back over to the Club to hit some balls or play nine holes, then cool off in the pool afterward.

8 PM: Time for some dinner and the choices within five minutes are unbelievable. We might choose Wasabi for some Thai, Circus for the best burger and milkshake in town, or Michelangelo’s for a pizza..  We might hit Blockbuster or Goodberry’s on the way home.

10 PM: Time to crash!

 

Advantages of living in Cary NC
