    1. [TNFENTRE] SGT ALVIN YORK Movie and some good times
    2. One of our Memebers has informed me of the Sgt York Movie being released on a DVD Nov 7 2006. To those intrested in purchasing it go to this addie. It is being sold through Amazon.com. I have seen the old black & white movie on tv many times. I remember Rosier Piles played by Walter Brennan. He had a store in Pall Mall. I remember eating my first Payday candy bar from his store.. http://www.amazon.com/Sergeant-York-Cooper/dp/B000HWZ4CA I also remember the Rolling Store coming down our road, unpaved it was. You could see a car coming I swear from 2 miles away. There was always a big cloud of dust. We could also tell where it would stop. My cousins OMA( TOOTIE) LEFFEW, JANIE DELK and I would run real fast and gather up as many eggs as we could to trade for candy and gum. It took 2 eggs for a candy bar. And gum, my goodness lasted for a month or more. At night we really did put it on a bedpost. Cause if we slept with it, it would somehow fall out of our mouths and get into our hair...(grin)As the gum got stale we would roll it around in the sugar it brought back the sweet taste but no flavor. Speaking of the dust cloud we also could see the rain as it came. We would be sitting on the LEFFEW porch and the rain would get closer and closer. I can still visualize it....Oh, what great times those were...They are all lost now in the progress of our world. Times were simpler back then but they were also good sometimes.....My grandchildren and great grandchildren will never get to see those times...... Just found out my 2nd great grandchild will be born in December. That will make 10 grands and 3 greats....Boy, what a bunch of descendants I will have, eh!

    3. Milly, Would you mind if I forwarded this to another list. Memory Lane where we share memories of days past. I know everyone there would enjoy reading your memories and the information concerning the movie.
