It is entirely possible you don't remember it... or at least much of it.

And the Polk County Pot Plane Now (1977) a major motion picture!  When I was 17 I went camping out with some friends in Esom Hill. I got drunk... really really drunk. Like, funneled 17 and shotgunned 6 in 2 hours drunk. I had never been drunk before. One of the guys who's place we were camping out at broke out a 3 liter coke bottle and cut a hole in it and stuck a tube in it and filled it up part of the way with water... then started smoking something from it. I was so drunk I didn't care... so I started doing it. hash...laced with LSD. Never been drunk. Never done drugs. The most vivid memory I have from that night is vomiting whole maraschino cherries and wondering why because I hadn't eaten any. True story. Esom Hill. |

I was raised there still live here only 1\4 mile down the railroad tracks. Saw the movie saw the plane I've seen it all.
Believe it or not people were lined up down the road and through the plane to see it. It actually wasn't in esom hill.

I'm down to one childhood friend. Drugs and drug related crimes. I know it's currently acceptable and cool. But im telling anyone who is listening marijuana is not harmless.

The amount of drugs and drug related violence in that neck of the woods is startling. When you Google search "Esom Hill" the first thing to come up is the "Tales of Esom Hill" I linked. The 4th thing is: Seven arrested following Esom Hill, Cedartown drug raids ... it is an unincorporated community in the middle of nowhere. Back in the day I heard it said that pot planes didn't dare fly over because they would be shot down. I was friends with Ronnie Chandler's son... been to their house way back when... though that was between Vigo and Borden, not really in Esom Hill, but close enough to be part of the metro. I gotta say though, the Slaughters are good people... that had a serious run of bad luck. |
