In this second interview, Ray Hildebran and his sister, Frances "Sue" Elmore, compare past and present life in rural Catawba County, North Carolina. Mr. Hildebran and Mrs. Elmore discuss activities that still take place in the region, such as gardening, fishing, and attending camp meetings, and how those activities have changed over the years. Mr. Hildebran shares his views on having the right balance of developmental regulation in rural areas to protect longtime residents and on how he hopes the region remains the same. After the main interview (around 1:00:00), the recording includes conversation about Ray Hildebrand's mother, a drive with Ken Hildebran to Murray's Mill to demonstrate how the molasses mill works, and an audio journal by Gabriel Cumming.
