The Line Playlist

  

 

From December 21, 2002

 

My Father's boyhood church, "The Line," so named because it stands on the North Carolina / Georgia state line. In the 3rd shot my Father is standing at his parent's grave...

 

The church and graveyard are situated on a hill with a commanding westward view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Standing at this spot I feel as close to my heritage as I can get...

 

From this spot can be seen my grandfather's grave (the closest maker), the church he sang in, the road he traveled on, and across the way, the point of his birth...

 

From March 6, 2007

Bethany Baptist Church, "The Line." Grandfather Charlie Thompson and and Grandmother Dollie are buried here, as well as many other Thompsons...

 

       

 

   

 

This iPod Playlist is inspired by "The Line"... and is dear to my heart...
