The thread @sinclair1 started about changing times and stick shifts had me pondering about other things that have changed. Started to post there but thought might be a little off topic. That usually doesnt stop me but I'm trying to be better. Been thinking about the word salmon. Growing up we read and dreamed about catching salmon on spawning migrations and how the bears would line up and gorge on them. There was canned salmon and people made patties out of it and pan fried it to eat with biscuits. Occasionally there would be a story told of someone who had met a fella who had traveled and witnessed such. Then somewhere along the line the L disappeared from the word. Guess its the fancy way to say it. Still has an L in my speech. What about you? What else has changed? Lots of big things. More people, traffic and such. They're easy to see and try to avoid but I think it's the little things that seep in and erode away at the Southern culture.
