MEEKINS OUR GLORIOUS ROADSIDES The roadsides in the South Albemarle have never been more beautiful at this time of the year in my recollection. I travel through them several days a week and the colors of the dying leaves now excell even our mountainsides. Through East Lake, with its sycamores, and Tyrrell, with its gums and juni per, and Hyde and Eastern Beau fort .there’s nothing like it. I be lieve though, the prettiest stretch of all is between Swan Quarter and Ponzer, in Hyde County, particularly where the wide canal is a silver ribbon dividing woods from road. The sunsets have been magni ficent in their coloring these November days, particularly when viewed across the water. It’s an inspiring view when one may ride facing it in the evening, as may be done in going to Co lumbia, or to Swan Quarter from the east. In the Mattamuskeet area it’s all the more fascinating because of the big strings of geese that line themselves against the rose hued sky when the day is dying, and the air is still, and off to one side the smoke from chimneys drift slowly upward, and the scent of wood smoke is in the crisp air. I wish every person in our land could ride these highways and view the glory of our South ern Albemarle Roadsides before their brilliance is gone, and the branches become bare of their beauty. I wish everyone could feast upon the sunsets spread in their magnificence upon the sky and the waters at once. I do not imagine a more convincing token of the greatness and goodness of God. The past week has witnessed the finest stretch of autumn wea ther for the time of year in my recollection. They have been wonderful days. It seems every time I pull out some winter clothes, the weather turns warm. It’s like putting on a newly pressed suit. Then it rains.
