Re: Jody Meacham UNC Newsletter 3-30-2014
Anybody good enough to be Leeford's older brother is OK in my book also!! I think we did run most of the Meachams out of Hamlet though for various reasons not mentionable here on a family forum!!

I'm crazy about old aerial photos and trying to figure out where it is. I was in the Civil Air Patrol for a while. Those flights back then stick in your memory.

Re: Trains
Is this a trick question? I remember one day back in 36 that the whole east coast froze over and only one train came through and he just wanted his bearings greased. I think it was in November.

Isn't US 1 the road that goes between the drag strip and the Rock? That was the intersection I was thinking of, Wire Grass and US 1.

Cuz Ricky, Bootie, Tommy Haliburton and all them other Jr Executives were in charge of all the tom foolery and good bands we had the pleasure of seeing down there!!
