This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

Who Are the Windies?
By the way, in case you're wondering, big-time "Gone With the Wind" movie fanatics are called "Windies."
I am somewhat of a "Windie" as it never fails to bring tears to my eyes when I see that scene with all the dead and wounded Confederates in the street as the camera fans back past that Confederate flag. Gets me every time.
A good question, however, what is the singular of Windies? Would that make me a "Windy?" Didn't the Association have a song about that back in the '60s?
