The day after Sunday.

We [ Ann & I ] went to an ESTATE Sale Saturday. The plantation of Colonel Wayland Jones Jr of Clayton NC est. 1810 was being emptied out after 200 years of continuous family occupation. I don't think that there was anything 200 years old left in the house except the floors and wood trim. It was exciting to be in a dwelling that was 50 years old when the civil war started. But 200 years is very young. Tutankhamen of Egypt had 2000 years of Egyptian history to study and lived/died 1000 years BEFORE Christ! We are here but for a short time........lets enjoy it to the fullest.
