"Look at Netts Country Store & Deli with Google Maps. Then, look at Sewell Rd. On another map I have, that branch
alongside that road is identified as "Sewell Branch." It's right where Leipers Creek turns from a gentle west southwest direction
more sharply into a south south west direction for a short stretch before turning again toward west southwest. I believe Netts is
very, very near where our EDGAR land was located! And, it's where I was already planning for us to have lunch. Serendipity
and meant to be?" email Bob WEBB, 11 Oct 2015
