I got this from Arcadia Publishing, the folks who did my two
Pacific Beach books, but thought it was a joke. Apparently shagging
in The Carolinas is not the same as shagging in the United
Kingdom, re: Austin Powers. You may have to look it up. Something
about whites embracing Black culture. I'm guessing music and
dance.
This photo took me back. Now, I look back and wonder if girls
had fun with gliders, too.
I hadn't seen this stunning photo of the Arboretum, now known as
the Botanical Gardens, before. I've enlarged it and added some
newer photos. Click HERE to see how I did.
I saw this photo on Facebook and recalled correctly that I'd
shared it before. Not a GREAT photo, but it's fun to look at the
mid-'50s cars and see the old May Co building. I think, in our
youth, we decided that color was (I'll clean it up) Baby Diaper
Yellow. Click HERE to take another look.
My sweet sister, Nancy Burrell Williams, passed away July 10th, just seven days shy of her 81st birthday. She lived a good life, raising two incredible sons, and had four grandchildren that she was so proud of. Throughout her life she had many dear friends. She loved hosting parties where she got to prepare literal feasts for her guests. A kiss goes to heaven — that’s for sure — for she will definitely be missed by me and those who knew her — Joanne Burrell Guffey ‘69
