As a young man growing up on a small tobacco farm in rural Vance County, Warrenton Road, Oliver Drive North, working the field next to the Seaboard Railway (Where Earl Dickerson’s Garage & NC Baptist Men Disaster Relief Storage Facility are located) plowing that field with a mule, a streamline train would fly by and the passenger train was called “The Silver Meteor”.
This train left Maine and headed to Florida. I would dream of being on that train one day going to Florida. A country & Western song would come to mind entitled “The Orange Blossom Special”. In later years I realized that dream and went to Florida on that same train.
I am not too old now to still have dreams. Another SILVER METEOR is on the way. This time it is named “CONSERVATISM”. It has left Massachusetts, New Jersey and Virginia. Not only will it proceed on to Florida, but all over the United States. The people of this great country will again elect politicians that will believe in a strong military and protect our borders, no amnesty for illegal aliens and above all put GOD first in all things. These are just a few of the actions that need to be put in place. I did not mention any political party, all we need is to be conservative.
