High School and college seniors are being ‘treated’ , as they should be in. … Traditional graduation ceremonies are ‘out’ in most areas … being replaced with drive-up, walk-up ceremonies … and other creative ways of special recognition. The graduates deserve special attention. … Love the huge pics of the class of 2020 at homes and churches in the area…
Do you remember your graduation? I do … sort of … about 60 of us at Bladenboro High School, 1956. Some excited, heading off to the beach after the ceremony, or some other special site … for others of us, back on the job the next morning, sporting a diploma … Still very proud of it. … Later graduated from business school in Charlotte, Carolina School of Broadcasting … but not sure there was any recognition … mailed the diploma, I think … after they made sure the tuition was paid…
Congratulations to the class of 2020.
NASCAR is wide open … seems a race a day. … Last night it was truck racing … Top 5 finishers included…

Really miss all the special events that are normally held, beginning in March and throughout the spring and summer…
Has violence ‘picked up’ or is it my imagination?
The important thing to remember is not to forget.
How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box of matches to start a campfire?
Doing nothing is hard, you never know when you’re done.
