DATE: July 2, 2006
LOCATION: Roxboro, Person County, NC
DESCRIPTION: Sunday at noon. County courthouse with monument to Confederate soldiers. Not a soul on Main Street, though the stores and restaurants along the highway that bypasses downtown are bustling. The same was true yesterday, Saturday, at noon: the downtown deserted, the bypass busy, with twenty cars lined up at McDonald’s take out window and a long line inside, too.
