Sad our grandkids will never experience times like that.I remember how much fun it was to stop in the small SE GA towns and eat at mom & pop restaurants. Hope there are some left when we do get to make a trip over for a couple of days. Need to see my grandparents grave markers one more time. I remember the service was pure southern charm. Soft spoken waitresses with the southern drawl and the table settings were so neatly place including a glass of ice water to get started. The greens were fresh and the potatoes real. Pot roast was like grandma cooked. Those truly were the good ole days.
Crazy, I went on a field trip with a class of 1st graders. We went to the children’s museum. It was fun. My group got a little wild at the end.How was your day H2o?
Mo town?I was glad to leave Detroit. Lake effect snow.... How this FL boy hated that mess. My job sent me to down town Detroit during snow storms to get supplies for the machine shop where I worked. I saw all of the real Detroit during the late 60's.
She lived close to Kroger.yes I do. Hartly bridge rd.
Real Mo Town when the Platters and the rest made real music.Mo town?
Back in those days Detroit was a beehive of small machine shops making things for many different manufacturing bigger businesses. All kinds of tool and die places. Where I worked we made roll form tooling. Once in a while I still see and old Chevy pickup or a Pontiac Bonneville that I worked on the tooling for. The pickup had the name Chevrolet stamped into a molding across the tailgate. The Bonneville has a rocker molding that looks like a sine wave. That was a real not so nice word to get to run. We had to hand machine in a metal lathe back then. No CNC powered tooling existed. Tracer lathes were few and far between.my father worked at a machine shop in SW detroit.
Hmm good pointThere are far worse alternatives. I'm tired and beat up but we didn't get a tornado today or ever for that matter.
