Bill’s been in business 60 years. Jeff’s dad, also a TV repair man 60 years ago, died in 1973. When the artist visits McCormick’s TV Repair in Yulee, he feels he’s revisiting his childhood. Both men have kept up: Jeff through newer ideas of depictions of self, Bill through technological changes that have brought him third-gen customers.

New Story: St. Mary’s Liquors, Riverside Motel and the Boat Ramp Where They Pulled Nellie from the River

Long abandoned, the Riverside Motel, by the Florida-Georgia state line at the St. Mary’s River, still takes lodgers. St. Mary’s Liquors serves up favors to legend trippers. Whether murder, whether suspicious prior divorce, Nellie and Knud lived most of their 60 year marriage here. Jill watched the car raised up from the river, six years after Nellie drowned. My sister and I find more than a dozen bird’s nests in motel rooms.
