• It’s a Small World After All

    After our lunch in the Timeout Market, I was in line to use the restroom before we walked back to the hotel. A lovely young lady was standing in front of me, and I started talking with her. She asked me where I was from and I told her North Carolina and she said she was from North Carolina too. Her parents had moved down from up north to Charlotte before she was born. Then they moved to Denver, North Carolina before finally settling in Cornelius. I asked her if she went to school in North Carolina and she said yes she went to Gardner Webb. I told her that our nephew Bradley Hallman went to Gardner Webb and played baseball for them. The world got really small when she said that he was a senior when she was a freshman and she remembered that he was a pitcher for the baseball team. I never got her name because it was her turn to use the restroom and she was gone when I came out. What a joyful moment it was to be standing in line to use the restroom and to meet someone who knew our nephew.
