Thoughts While ShavingWe have been promised rain….It has arrived….I promise to stay inside or close by…unfortunately, some have no choice….Let’s all use extreme caution as we move about over the next few days.

We have numerous cancellations of planned events…When in doubt, call ahead… And, send your cancellation notices to BladenOnline.com@gmail.com …Part of our commitment is to work with all, at all times, especially during times such as what we are experiencing right now…

A few cancellations….The 1st Anniversary of the Vineyard Golf of White Lake Tournament, the Star Communication employees food raising effort, the Bikers who were planning to come through Bladen have stopped their trek across the state….Expect cancellation of the fun softball fundraiser by Law Enforcement Officers, EMS and Fireman…All have been or expect to be re-scheduled…

West Bladen football team lost to Wallace-Rose Hill last night, check our sports page. The East Bladen at Clinton game is likely on the casualty list…We will share cancellations throughout the weekend….

The Elwell Ferry near Kelly is “out of business” for a few days, ’til the flood is over and the river returns to more normal conditions…

Latest on Barry White….Elizabethtown businessman……Duke surgery that was scheduled for late Thursday morning finally began late yesterday afternoon and was completed around 9 p.m. last night….A long rehab is on his agenda…and hopefully no infection…He was seriously injured last week on a vehicle accident in Robeson County….The family continues to ask for prayer for his recovery.

The best thing one can do when it’s raining is to let it rain. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Why don’t sheep shrink when it rains? George Carlin

It’s gonna be a gully washer. Bladen County expression.
