It was cold and snowing when we left Myrtle Beach, SC this morning. The weather map showed that freezing weather had extended down into FL. Nancy and I loaded up and headed for NC. SPS called the other night and informed me that I had been in NC in 1989 while escorting the OHHS tennis team to Clemson, SC. I checked the map and found SPS was indeed correct. In fact in 1989 we drove near Hendersonville, NC. My grandparents (maternal) at one time owned 10,000 acres of prime southern pine forest near Hendersonville. It was sold in the late 40s.
The trip through NC was great. I was surprised at the good condition of the roads. We drove I95 to Richmond, Va and then headed west to the Shenandoah Valley. We were going to take the scenic Skyline Drive but it was closed because of the snow. We spent the night at a Holiday Inn Express in Wayneboro, VA.
Ossineke, Mi this date in 1938. GG noted it was warm (high 30s) and raining. Very icy. GG got a letter from Alex Elson. I have no idea who Alex is.
