Gnome News is Good News

In the last several months, the mid-North Carolina city of Durham has experienced a curious phenomenon. Pedestrians and motorists alike are stopping in their tracks, craning their necks, and remarking on the sudden proliferation of pointy-hatted creatures dotting the Durham skyline and landscape.

The humble authors of this blog claim no special knowledge of these gnomes' provenance, nor do they purport to know the location of every gnome in Durham. Rather, they comprise a small but enthusiastic group of Durham lovers delighted by the frivolity of finding and photographing each mythic creature in its environs.

Join us on our journey as we discover and befriend these short-statured Durhamites!

  3. A friend of mine carries the Travelocity Gnome w/ her on all her trips and takes a picture. After one such trip, I called her one day to tell her about a gnome on the I beam on the Broad Street Bridge! Ever since then I keep spotting them everytime I come to Durham....Now she spots them coming to Raleigh! Great humor! We love them!
