1961.. Small And Bull Hatchery fire in Pocomoke.
1978.. At the movies- Saturday Night Fever and Close Encounters Of The Third Time are big attractions.
The Time Machine is a weekly feature I've enjoyed researching and compiling on The Pocomoke Public Eye since 2011. I have fond memories of growing up in Pocomoke City and welcome reader contributions we can share about things you've read, remember, or were told relating to our Pocomoke/Eastern shore area...a sentence, a paragraph, or more all fine. Just email it.
I remember that fire. We were spending the day at Merril's beach and could see and smell the smoke all the way from there. Will never forget that smell. The next time I smelled something like that was sitting off the coast of East Timor during their civil war.
ReplyDeleteI, too, remember the Small & Bull fire. I believe it was on a Saturday. The rumor was that all the rafters and ceiling structure burned so quickly because of a buildup of dust that had accumulated over many years.
