Fantastic first phase victory for property owners in Greensboro.
Reached a resolution with NCDOT about inverse condemnation.
Now they can proceed to determine damages, including attorney fees.

At Bib’s Barbeque they say “It’s not eastern, it’s not western, it’s Bestern”
The choice is difficult at Bib’s BBQ in downtown Winston-Salem. They also have brisket, smoked sausage, and ribs.
They hickory smoke their meat. That’s important. As one BBQ scholar once said “If it’s not hickory smoked, then it’s just cooked pork”. True BBQ by North Carolina standards, is hickory smoked. Yesterday I had their collards, which were kickin’ and spicy. For more information on Bib’s BBQ, go to: http://www.bibsdowntown.com/

In 1898 one of Forsyth County’s greatest industrialist, Henry Elias Fries, completed the hydroelectric plant. The power plant transmitted electricity 13 ¼ miles to Salem to power textile & fertilizer mills, as well as railway and street lighting. This long distance transmission was a feat at the time.
This plant was important to industry in the South, the ability to transmit electricity over long distances, as opposed to manufacturing plants being required to be alongside rivers, kept fledgling textiles and furniture makers in the South rather than returning to the North.
Idols generated power until 1998, until there was a fire.
Now the historic plant is in danger of destruction. See the article link to the Winston-Salem Journal. It discusses recent efforts to save the structure and part of our region’s history.

This blog on my companion site www.WillCaveat.com discusses a handwritten will (holographic will) and whether the beneficiaries of that handwritten will can testify as to what the testator (maker of the will) said concerning the date of the document. The Deadman Statute governs this kind of evidence

The Holographic Will (this means a handwritten will in the testator’s hand)
Issue: Was the Holographic Will written before or after a typed Last Will and Testament drafted by an attorney?
