The J-School sends me around the state to lead journalism workshops at 190 small newspapers from Murphy (the Cherokee Scout) to Manteo (the Outer Banks Sentinel). These are the newspapers off the beaten track, found along the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Blue Highways\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (read about it on my blog at weblogs.jomc.unc.edu\/bluehighways\/). And not surprisingly, I spend a lot of time on two-lane roads where the scenery is pure Americana. For the last 12 summers of the Community Journalism Roadshow, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been collecting \u00e2\u20ac\u0153roadside vernacular,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d like this fun shot from Western North Carolina. Can you guess what town this is from? The answer can be found below.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: About the identification of last week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Hollyhock Lady: two readers have written in saying that the lovely old gardener was Mrs. Sallie H. Bush. Still no word yet if she was Police Chief William Blake\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mama.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANSWER:<\/strong> Cashiers, NC<\/p>\n<p><strong>A THOUSAND WORDS<\/strong><br \/>\nDo you have an important old photo that you value?
