Time to highlight another "Photo of the Week". This one, sent in by Mary Rose, shows her Grandpa, Jess Palone (on the far left), with a group of fellow baseball players. Mary told me that they played baseball across the tracks, south of the current feed mill. The photo is probably early 1900s. I spoke with Mrs. Hagan today, and she said that baseball was definitely played down across the tracks back in the day. Thank you so much Mary for sending this photo! Would love to find out if anyone knows some of the other fellas in this picture. If anyone has photos they want to share, please message me here, or you can email me at: [email protected] Thanks everyone for your interest in this page! It's fun seeing pictures and learning the history of our little town!

Getting ready to eat my blackeyed peas, cornbread, cabbage, and hog jowl a little later! "Be sure to eat at least a spoonful of blackeyed peas...even if you don't like them" - My Granny always used to tell us. Good thing I LOVE blackeyed peas now! Happy New Year! -Jeremy Kelly

I have seen several pages from Historical sites, and museums where they "highlight" a photo of the week. I would love to do this here as well. So, the first photo I want to recognize was sent by Terry Jo White. Thank you so much Terry! What a GREAT picture of the Lake Frances Resort!!!! If anyone has some fun pictures of Watts (school stuff, historical stuff, family, pics around town, etc) PLEASE send them to me. You can message me here, or send them via email to Jeremy Kelly @ [email protected]
