Subject: Lowes Used Auto Parts is great!

I just wanted to share the great experience I have had with Gerry at Lowes Used Auto Parts in Moncure (5 miles south of Pittsboro off Pittsboro-Moncure Rd). They’re a family owner business where customer service and hospitality stands out. They have many makes and models of parts cars to select from. I’ve needed several parts recently and he has always been accommodating with fair prices.

Subject: Decisions made in the May 4th Primary could shape the future of Chatham County

This May 4th Republican and Unaffiliated voters will make important choices that could effect the future of our great county. What an exciting time in Chatham to have so many Republicans running in Primaries!

Many of the candidates have websites that I would like to share with everybody to help in making these critical decisions on May 4th. Also, the Chatham County Republican Party is holding a Candidates Forum on April 13th at the District Courtroom in Pittsboro at 7:00 pm.

Subject: Re:  Spanish moss

Spanish moss, Tillandsia usneoides, is a flowering plant in the Bromeliad family.  (Though it was common where I grew up, I’ve never noticed the flower, which is apparently rather small and not flamboyant.)  The only reason I know for concern is if there is enough of it to interfere with photosynthesis by the trees where it is found – not likely in this area.  It is not a parasite.  The only thing it gets from the trees is a place to hang, so to speak.  It derives its nourishment and moisture from the atmosphere – pretty efficient lifestyle.  It was previously found only on the coastal plain of North Carolina.  Its presence in Moncure may be explained as the result of introduction by migrating species such as birds or humans or seeds blowing in the wind.  Enjoy.

Even if you don’t have a child in school, you can help our local schools out everytime you go grocery shopping.
