Richard, that moment with your dad was very special.In 1996, I had just moved to Greenville and the Olympics were held in Atlanta. I didn't get to attend any of the events in person, but the torch came through our town and it was a very special moment. We are about 2 hours NE of Atlanta. I got chills and tears as the former mayor of our city, who was nearing 80 years old at the time, came through with the torch. It was a very exciting moment! And the weekend after the Olympics ended, my friend and I went to Atlanta and experienced some of the excitment by visiting Centennial Park and some of the special places and activities that had popped up as a result. It was so much fun.
