Fall Outing of the Research Triangle Branch

The Research Triangle Branch of the ESU gathered October 23, 2022 for a Fall Outing at Milburnie Fishing Club, one of Wake County's oldest social clubs which has hosted governors, legislators, and prominent Raleigh families for 100 years.  The Fall colors were breathtaking in the wonderful rural setting.  Members and guests enjoyed beverages including NC wines and gathered around a roaring fire in the clubhouse before enjoying a traditional barbecue luncheon including the famous Milburnie oyster casserole.  Following dessert of banana pudding, Phil Kirk entertained all present with a very informative talk on the wine industry in NC, and its extensive growth.  All guests left planning a visit to a NC winery in the near future.

Jaye Day Trotter and Ginny Maxwell welcomed our speaker, Phil Kirk

Charlaine Milani, President Margaret Steed, and Dixie Boyce enjoyed the roaring fire on a chilly Fall day.

Martha Leak, Anne Steele, Bob Leak, Ed Steele, and Winkie Worley were glad to visit with eachother and other members gathered at the fishing club on a beautiful Fall day.

The barbecue luncheon was delicious!
