Check out lawnmower racing & nesting birds, meet a famous pirate & an inspiring young girl

The smell of rubber & the grinding of gears are a love song to Pam & Joe Sizemore who have been competitively racing souped up lawnmowers together for years. Of all the pirates on the seas the worst of them was Blackbeard, who lived & died right here in NC! Scientists are studying the Carolina Chickadee. Paige Sullivan was born with a rare heart defect & is writing a book about her experience.
