My route took me through the city of Durham via NC-147 and US-501. With a right turn onto
Bahama Road(SR 1616), I suddenly found myself far removed from the city swarm. Once on this
two-land country road, it did not take me long to make a stop. After crossing the bridge over
Lake Michie, I pulled over at a small gravel parking area on the right shoulder. From here you
can see the lake. I followed a short trail down to the lake to take a few shots. After returning
to my car I continued on passing by the boat launching area on the right. Located near the town of
Bahama, Lake Michie is a reservoir within the Neuse River watershed, and is the primary water supply
for the city of Durham.
