Just Saw Childhood Homeplace on TV
« on: September 16, 2015, 09:18:57 pm »
Sitting here watching Megan Kelly on Fox News Channel and she's interviewing the young woman taken hostage by Brian Nichols, the man who killed the judge, a deputy and several others in the Atlanta Courthouse.  The apartment complex where he escaped to and took a woman hostage was once our farm.  The actual apartment building he was in is sitting on the very ground where our house was located. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Wow.

Must bring back memories.

That condo wasn't there when I was growing up...  :)

Yes, and they ruined the swimming hole in the creek where we used to go skinny-dipping, but at least they built a pool right across from our yard.  Took up most of what was our garden.
