Several of us girls that went to the ?W? together, used to go to the Columbus Pasquale?s often, when it was out on Hwy 82. One of our group, of four, was from Columbus and went to the same church as the owner, and the rest of us went with her to church, too. I guess he liked all of us, because whenever we went to his restaurant, he would invite us behind the counter to fix whatever we wanted just like we wanted it. My favorite was the open face beef sandwiches, smothered in gravy. 😋 He was such a nice man.

It is a pretty area and a great place to raise a family. Been here almost 22 years, but I grew up vacationing here so it has been "home" for most of my life.

Laurel had intentions of doing that ... back in the mid 70's they hired my dad to be the architect for their "Urban Renewal" project. It helped some but the total funding just wasn't there to bring it to full completion ...... We did end up with a disco called Mad Jacks though

Good old "Urban Renewal". Hopefully your dad was a good architect as more oriented to preservation and not needless demolition. We had a similar program here that wiped away multiple brick waterfront warehouses in the 1970s. Would have been perfect waterfront condos or lofts. Instead we got a 6 lane divided highway and a new rail spur to our port

Mr. & Mrs. MP Carter. He taught at JCJC, she taught at South Jones. Lived out on Augusta Road right across the street from the JCJC President's home back when it was by itself in the middle of a big field. Me and my brother and the Tisdale boys would play in that big open yard sometimes, a million years ago. I miss those giant pecan trees in my grandparents' yard. Many of the best moments of my life happened in that yellow brick house on Augusta Road.

Lol. I drove the delivery van for Lomax Printers for a couple years. Loved working for Perry Lomax.

Same thing happened with us. My papaw had cattle, chicken houses and a huge farm and grew everthing, but like you, it all got sold off over time. The best time of my life was working on that farm with my papaw. Wish i could go back.

Are you referring to Terrell and Martha Tisdales kids? Terrell and Martha were good friends of mine.

I remember that setting ... I had Mrs Carter for a class at South Jones - (if it's the same one) she was HOT !!! ..... Terrell Tisdale and my dad were good friends as he installed and taught the construction dept for 4 years there before becoming registered as an architect and moving on but they remained very close.
Not sure if Mr CG Watson sold the restaurant later but I know he used to own CG's

Yes. I would turn pages for Martha when she played organ at FBC when I was visiting my grandparents, the Carters.
Did Vacation Bible School with the Tisdale kids at FBC many summers...

If your dad was Terrell Tisdale's age, you probably weren't in my grandmother's class. And she has never, to my knowledge, been described as "hot" so I doubt it was her. She taught in the 50s and 60s.

No doubt. Learned a lot in this one and it is somewhat refreshing to have a non bitching thread.

Awesome! I sold Martha her grand piano many years ago, almost seems like a different lifetime ago.

The Carter I'm thinking about was teaching in the 70's .... Last time I saw Terrell Tisdale was at my fathers funeral in 1986 but they were good people ...... I'm almost certain we probably know each other
