One Tree Hill

Ok, so my favorite show ever is One Tree Hill. I've been watching it forever now! I knew that they filmed in Wilmington, North Carolina and I was very excited about maybe seeing them shooting the tv show! When Abby went last time, she was able to see them filming from across the river.


I didn't get to actually see them filming (which I was really bummed about, because I would have loved to meet the actors), but I did get to see a few of the sets. They have filmed a few scenes in the Wilmington airport where I landed (but of course didn't get any pictures of). There's also a store called "Clothes over Bros" that one of the people on the show own. It's not a real store, it's just used for filming. I got a picture of that with my phone, but I don't know how to get that one on the blog.

Lastly...there was some drama last season on the show. There is a basketball court call the "rivercourt" where they play alot, and hang out alot. We were at the courthouse looking across the river and Abby told me that's where she saw them filming last time. I was convinced that HAD to be the rivercourt, so we drove across the bridge to check it out. IT WAS!!! Last season a girl (who is an artist on the show-her name's Peyton and she's my FAVORITE character) decided to show her love for a boy by painting a message across the river court. When we got to the court the message was still painted on there! That was how I new for sure this was the set! The picnic table that they like to sit on and talk was there too, and I sat on that table!! I've never been so excited in my whole life!!




Across the painting on the rivercourt was an asteroid. This hasn't happened on the tv show yet, so I'm guessing I've seen a sneak preview of the season yet to come! The show starts back in September and I can't wait! I've bought some of the old seasons and realize they shoot a lot of the show downtown. I never thought I would recognize so many places on the show! It was AWESOME!
The high school that the cast went to was the Tree Hill High. The basketball team they played for were the Tree Hill Ravens. We were looking around a gift shop downtown and I found that they were selling Tree Hill Ravens tshirts. Of course I had to buy one, so here's a pic of me in my Tree Hill tshirt!

First vacay blog...this one's for dad

So, I just went to North Carolina on vacation. I will be posting more pics later, but I thought I would post a couple for dad real quick. While me and Abby were shopping one day we saw this awesome car. We decided to steal a few pics of it. Then, when we got back, I went out to eat (where I succeeded in embarrassing myself by dumping my water all over me and my food) and parked in the parking lot was another car!! So, here are some pics of the fancy cars! More information and vacation pics to follow soon! The yellow car was in Ohio...can you guess what kind of cars they are??
