Behind the house was a smoke house where we smoked pork, a chicken house and pen, a cow stall and pen and a hog pen. In November or December we killed hogs and hung them from a cross-tree where you see the car. | Usually, neighbors got together at hog killing time and there would be 30 or 40 people there with 7 or 8 hogs butchered. My Dad, Roland, was usually the butcher. The rest cut lard, bacon, scraped or tended the fire. |

Roland H. Goldston, Sr., left, about 1950 on the Blue Ridge Parkway in western NC, one of his favorite sites to visit. I remember we camped up there in a tent when I was a kid and Dad made succotash which I can still taste to this day! |

Pictured left is Roland H. Goldston, Sr., with German Shepherd dog Joe. The family had bought a 1936 Chevy which had the spare tire mounted on the left front fender. Joe rode on the running board with his nose tucked behind the tire. He went everywhere Roland went... once the family was driving to Wake County to visit his parents when the car stopped in Sanford at a traffic light. Joe hopped off the running board, crossed the street, did his business, then got back aboard. The family didn't know that Joe had invited himself for the trip. |
