    The little town of Bladenboro sits in Bladen County with a population of just under 1800. The town grew to prosperity after the Bridger brothers moved into the town and started a turpentine business and then later got involved in lumber. There isn’t much to say about the town unless your speaking of the mysterious beast that has terrorized Bladenboro since the 1950s.

    Troy Ohio is the county seat of Miami county. It’s home to the annual Strawberry Festival. It’s also where the very first barcode scanner using the UPC was set up. In 1974 at the Marsh Supermarket to buy a pack of Wrigley gum. But before the festival and before the gum a devastating flood in 1913 would not only change the course of the river but the face of the town forever.
