We are losing those local expressions for better or worse.
My grandpa used to tell me of driving a horse drawn wagon to the tobacco
market - one day done, the market and one day back. These days I can
follow the same route in half an hour (and come close by Spencer's).
In those day this area was very isolated. Today in 15 minutes I can be
at Hanes Mall Blvd.
