Famous Southern Pines is next door to the virtually unknown little hamlet of Vass and is also in North Carolina horse country.
If one goes from Fayetteville to Southern Pines, it is miles of driving through woods and fields, but mostly woods. If you can get onto the Fort Bragg army base, there are shortcuts. When you arrive in Southern Pines, it is like a completely different world. Things seem a bit less hectic and threatening there. There is a hustle and bustle by the shopkeepers. Many of the small store owners are thankful that Walmart closed, even if it meant a sudden increase in the unemployment levels.
