Today’s Mystery Photo has become something of a meeting place in this community. “Oh yes, meet me at the Red Robin,” is heard, and it works. Do you know where this Red Robin is located. If so, send your answers to elliott@brack.net, and be sure to include your hometown.
George Graf of Palmyra, Va. has been active recently recognizing the Mystery Photo. He was first in with the answer to the last mystery, saying: “Lighthouse in Bald Head Island, North Carolina. Old Baldy was first lit in 1817 by its longtime keeper Sedgwick Springs, a veteran of the American Revolution and owner of the nearby Sedgely Abbey Plantation. He had been appointed to the position in 1806 at the behest of US President Thomas Jefferson and served as the light keeper at Bald Head for more than 30 years.”
Then came Bob Foreman of Grayson, telling us: “Bald Head Light House, Brunswick County North Carolina. Some of my ancestors came from Carteret County and Brunswick County.” The final right answer came from Susan McBrayer, Sugar Hill, who added: “The new photo is the lighthouse at Bald Head Island across from Fort Caswell at the mouth of the Cape Fear River in North Carolina.”

Featured in the January issue of Georgia Magazine, the publication of Georgia Electric Membership Corporation, was the Duluth Rexall Drugs lunch counter. The story also told of other places in Georgia to get great food at drug stores. Danielle Sexton shows off a Duluth Rexall cheeseburger plate, featuring ground chuck, French Fries and tomato. The accompanying article also highlighted the single dish that Rexall Drugs features every day, “slabs of meatloaf.” (Photo by Phillip Ratliff.)
