The
group began the day at Lake Norman, located near Charlotte.
Queen’s Landing
was developed as an idea of Jack Williams
about 15 years ago. The Catawba Queen is
a replica of a Mississippi Riverboat
paddle wheeler that the group boarded for a cruise and lunch.
The
Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is
one of the
jewels in the Queen City’s crown. The Garden sits on 380 acres along
the banks of Lake Wylie and was named one of the nation’s 20
Great Gardens in HGTV’s popular book, Flower Gardening.
