Election Day … March 3, 2020. Hope you will vote for the candidate of your choice…

Democratic presidential candidates list narrowing … 2 or 3 less than a week or so ago…

The ballot includes many state and local candidates…

60% chance of showers … the local weather forecast … high in the low 70s.

A Bladen County salute to many of our younger folks … among them Lacey Suggs closing out a great 4 years at UNCW. And Robert Kinlaw for winning more awards for filmmaking. … Suggs and Kinlaw are White Lake natives…

Mountain bikers return to the Brown’s Creek Bike Park Saturday…..A couple of hundred student bicyclists will practice on Saturday and race on Sunday … the 4th week of the Coastal Carolina Off-Road series…

There are many locals, graduates of UNC-P in the area … thought I would share the town of Pembroke is celebrating its 125th Anniversary beginning Friday, March 6. … Google … Pembroke Marks 125th Year Anniversary for details…

No doubt there are other events planned for coming days and weeks. … Check our BladenOnline Events page and the Elizabethtown-White Lake area Chamber of Commerce website for constant updates…

Growing old has pluses (I think) and negatives … ex. not sleeping well … Need more physical activity … too easy to watch TV or do a little reading. … Woke early this AM frustrated, attempting to give some customer the proper number of S&H green stamps. … How long since there were S&H green stamps? … Remember, fill books with the stamps, and trade them in for various useful, mostly household items … lamps, bed covering, dinnerware, etc., and the lady folks knew exactly how many stamps they were due with a purchase…

Please vote today for the candidate of your choice … at your designated polling place.

Nice recovery on Wall Street … another couple of days like yesterday and should be about back to normal…
