I’m putting together a story about the old Georgiana Bottling plant that existed in the 1930s and 1940s. They bottled Dr Pepper and Barqs. You may have seen my ad in the Greenville Advocate.

Do you know of anyone that may have any pictures or know anything about it?

Was the article by Jerry on the bottling plant in Georgiana ever written? Devon Evers is my dad and he worked there when he was 17 years old. I would love to read the story.

Daily Horoscope for December 20

Pisces

If you-know-who has been getting on your nerves recently, matters will soon come to a head and force you to take drastic action. As Mars turns tail in your sixth house, you might finally lose your rag with someone at work who's been testing your patience to the limit. Stand your ground if you feel you're being messed about in some way. Clear the air if needs be, but don't create a really nasty atmosphere by throwing an eye-popping tantrum. Take care of any infections.
