"A lush corridor of trees welcomed me as I drove from the airport into downtown Durham, N.C., making me feel as if I were driving through the rural countryside rather than a major educational and commercial region.It was a fitting introduction to a trip marked by scenic beauty and hospitality, and it's owed to a long-standing ban on billboards. Even in the midst of a humid heat wave — where stepping outside at 8 a.m. meant being soaked in sweat 10 minutes later — my trip was all about spending time outdoors, punctuated by interludes of exceptional regional food and discovering local culture."
