Remembers Baptisms in Sulphur Creek Fish under Sulphur Creek Bridge, Taylor Ford RD Virginia Kimbler Burkett writes: Ed:I lived on Sulphur Creek Rd off 206 when in 3rd/4th grades. Attended 2 room school-Smiley. Walked across the creek on a footlog. Bridge there now. Baptisms were done in the part where cars forded. Is this the same road???Thanks for any response. - Virginia Kimbler BurkettYou're probaby thinking of a place at Ella/Goodin's Crossroads/Smiley, maybe in McGaha. . The fish picture was taken under the bridge on Taylor Ford Road, closer to the cities of Garlan and Columbia. The hole under the Taylor Ford Bridge is way too shallow for immersion and would be of little use to Baptists or Campbellites. The others, the more casual denominations, the Sprinklists, could hold a real good service there, I guess. -EW 2011-06-16 13:15:49 | Comments | Printable version

This would be an encouragement and reminder, I think, to recycle. I've peeked into trash cans there and see aluminum cans thrown away.
