The other day my baby sister sent me a video of a cardinal sitting on one of her car mirrors. She said she’d been thinking of mamaw lately, and the bird has appeared every time. That cardinal brings her comfort.
Sounds odd, doesn’t it? Not to me. The old folks around North Carolina say cardinals are visitors from heaven. Who am I to disagree?
Hey there! I’m Cassie Clark, a Carolina girl who grew up in two towns on opposite sides of North Carolina. My family has lived here for 8 generations, so my love for my home state is something I got honest. I’m passionate about sharing all the things that make North Carolina living so sweet – the history, the great outdoors, the culture, and the laidback lifestyle. That’s what Where the Dogwood Blooms is all about. It’s my love song to life in the Old North State; an ode to sunshine & hurricanes.
