I agree with the house colors. No one ever looks into the CCR's. We all have them except maybe the older (original homes). I was shocked to see as many homes as I have painted these colors.

You guys are so generous! I actually know that the Abbeville people would rather have donated items as opposed to "adopting a child". My Mom wanted to adopt a child, so she called the Abbeville Police and that is what they told her. You can send them cash if you wish and that address is: K...

Pastor Curry, if you can't say anything constructive, maybe you shouldn't say anything at all. Your comment last night shot at Councilwoman Coffey was in very poor taste and very unchristainly.
You are full of hate and that can't be good for those that look up to you.
