Harold Vaughan . . . or - The ramblings of a middle aged man in response to the ramblings of another middle aged man.   This post is destined to be my most read (sarcasm). ~ ~ ~ I met Harold Vaughan way back in the early 1980's.  On several occasions he was a "special speaker" at the Baptist church I was attending in Goldsboro, NC.  I believe he was part of an annual "revival" that we had.  I think I was there for at least two of these revivals that he spoke at.  I even took vacation time off work so I could attend the daily meetings, as well as the evening meetings.  This went on for 4, perhaps 5 days.  Heck, it may have lasted a week, I really don't remember.
