These stories are the result of no TV, movies or computer games. It's such a simple story, but one can see how embellished it could become passed down orally 6 generations and many versions . There are probably thousands of folk stories of a similar nature if one wants to investigate.

I can't get over the way his voice just speaks to me...Makes tears well up in my eyes. I wish I could be back in North Carolina.

Definitely! Have you been to Speedy's BBQ in Lexington? AHHH that place is awesome. I miss NC. I live in SC now, at the beach, but I still wanna go back to NC.

I'm from High Point, and his voice just takes me back to NC. This video is breathtaking.
