Hi Everybody ----- I'm trying to locate a dear friend, Nick from NJ. He's a good looking older Italian guy. After all the many years I've known him, I couldn't remember his last name. Sure sign of getting old.

Nick --- If you get this message, call Will at the Campground. He's trying to get in contact with you.

Pat,

I just texted Nick and told him you're reaching out.

"Good looking" is a bit of a stretch...

Nick · « **Reply #4 on:** March 16, 2020, 10:23:08 AM »

Thanks gentlemen! Got it. Just spoke to Will at Willville. Us older folks need to check-up on each other once in a while.
Thanks Dusty, Charlie and, yes, even Cam.

Nick isnt that mysterious, he gets around all over the place. Seems like I see him at every guzzi gathering. He is very handsome tho

Thanks Cam for getting in touch with Nick. Some of you guys are just jealous. I have to admit, there are quite a few of you older guys that are still good looking.

Ambogal · « **Reply #9 on:** March 17, 2020, 06:49:43 PM »

HEY Nick,

Tell me about it... I hardly dare drink much anymore as young women take advantage of me.

Wow, Nick has his own thread! What kind of oil do you use buddy?

I've been studying that to see if there's a compliment in there somewhere, but I'm having trouble finding it .... sort of like "I like Mabel, she don't sweat much for a fat lady ...."

Clearly, you haven't seen the svelte Lannis lately!

Shhh, don't say nothin' until I get that pair of "skinny jeans" Ken mentioned last year. Long way to go for THAT, I can tell you.

Although I'm not sure that a gruff "Yeh look good in them jeans, boy!" is anything I want to hear anytime soon!

Roebling3 · « **Reply #21 on:** March 18, 2020, 12:01:10 PM »

I've wondered what Lannis' last name could be. Good to know. Kinda poetic.
Years ago there was a popular movie star with the same initials. R3~

My great-grandpa Jesse Asbury ("Berry") Durrence owned a sawmill/gristmill in Tattnall County, Georgia 100+ years ago. His wife Eva was pregnant in 1914 with a son.

My grandma was there and told me the story. A peddler with a mule cart came through the area. One of the things he was selling was a big book, that was an almanac, Bible, How To Doctor Your Horse, and (among a dozen other things) "10,000 Names for your Baby". Berry and Eva didn't have any names picked out yet, so they chose "Lannis" from the book. Little Lannis Lewis Durrence was soon born, and later became my father's favorite uncle, who then named ME after his uncle.

I asked my grandma if that book were still around, but she said no, her father sold out the mill and everything in 1922 and moved to Charlotte, NC and became a building contractor, so no book.

This genealogy stuff is fascinating; so far, I've found 5 of my 3-times-great grandfathers in the CSA army; one was killed at The Wilderness ...
