Bladenboro voters approved the sale of beer and wine, approved by a huge margin. Over 300 approved to about 150 disapproved. each.
I refuse to discuss politics, especially at the national level. Think the whole process has reached new lows, both parties, but still enjoy the state and local races.
Congratulations to the winners, thanks to incumbents who step down or were replaced. Our system of government depends on folks willing to serve. Ever think about offering your services? It’s an experience you will never forget…Been there and done that and enjoyed.

Enjoy next few hour weatherwise. High today and tomorrow in the low 70s. Temps dip to low to mid 50s Friday and Saturday.
