Out of our Past

Out of our Past

“The ball game at Taylorsville between a team of Alexander boys and the ‘Anti-Prohibition team’ of Statesville resulted in a victory for the Statesville boys by a score of 10 to 6. The game was interesting and hard fought, and at its close there came near being a contest of a different sort. The teams became reconciled, however, without ‘coming to blows.’” (5/12/1908)

    ‘I can’t believe I’ve put up with 20 years of this’

    On our 20th anniversary, my lovely, red-headed wife and I sat down and took an honest assessment of our relationship, how far we had come in our two decades together and what the future holds for a couple of crazy kids that everyone said would never make it.

    It was the kind of deep, heartfelt dialogue that only two soul mates can share.
