Heyyyy Capt., glad you are adjustING to being a "down Pointer". Folks from down Point are generally fine people. When I came along the Haywood clan was the most notorious. Fast and loud car and bikes and could fix anyghing. There was this one, Cecil Haywood used to work on lawn mowers outboards and any other kind of motor. The name Motorun was named because folk from all over used to bring things down to that area to be fixed. Looks like you'very been introduced to Mathew County's water table, doesn' take much for the tide to come especially a Nor Easterner or hurrican, you'very probably seen some houses that have been raised. Hope to meet you sometime soon, gotta be down there to sing at my home church up the road at Susan In April.
Have a good one.
