Bynum General Store

Fireflies, fairy lights, and old time music on a summer's eve. That's what you'll find at the Bynum Front Porch music series on Fridays, June through August.

Though the general store closed several years ago, the charming old post office and sundry shop is still the gathering place for music lovers of all ages. Bring a chair (or a kind volunteer will set one out for you) and sit back while a band entertains you from 7-9 p.m. I saw the Wehutty Mudpuppies this week--a great old time string band that had young and old dancing on the lawn. See the summer lineup here: <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bynumfrontporch.org%2Findex.php%3Fpage%3Dcalendar&s=8a400c3b6efd9f8c78df9755ece21176dbb0419ef559c501f04e7f666c6ded96" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.bynumfrontpor…</a>

It's an alcohol-free event (though I did notice some folks discretely drinking malt beverages from travel mugs). There's also a food truck or two with hot dogs, barbecue, and ice cream.

Go back to a sweet, simpler time and check out the Bynum Front Porch Series. It's good old-fashioned fun.
