From the 1930s to the present, five generations of Secrests, Buies, their relatives, friends and descendants have gathered at Riverton, a "suburb" of Wagram NC during summers, frequently attending the annual July 4th picnic. July 4, 2009 was no different.
What a sense of PLACE, along with a sense that our ancestors are looking down on us:
Glimpses of the Beyond.
Photos from five generations at Riverton are here. Nearby is Cypress Bend Vineyard.I'm glad to see there is an effort to change the river's name from "Lumber," suggesting commerce, to the more poetic and historical Lumbee.
