Archie's Daddy, Jim Bird, has an image of his helicopter on the cover of the book ALABAMA CURIOSITIES.
Day before yesterday Archie asked me, "You know about the helicopter?."
I said,"No."
"Alison and I were out at that dump by Johnny Shines Street you were talking about & DCH had pitched some big ventilation fans & I told Alison,
'Daddy might be able TO DO SOMETHING WITH THIS.' "
