Eggleston's Guide


Every where I look there is an Eggleston. Eggleston Hall, Eggleston Repair, Eggleston Road.



Right across from Winston Hall is "Eggleston Hall" which used to be the library.
Last weekend we drove to Appomattox in hopes of finding some coffee. We came upon a great bookshop/coffeeshop there. They sell musical instruments, videos, books (I found Richard Cahan's "They All Fall Down" - a great book on Richard Nickel and Louis Sullivan). they also host Shakespeare Nights and an open-mic night. The owner was really sweet and nice and when he found out that I will be teaching photography at Hampden-Sydney he asked if I knew Eggleston Hall. Then he told us that his father's first cousin is William Eggleston.
