Mary Ellen Peck said - This brought tears to me, happy childhood memories. All the places that are still so vivid to me. Main street serviced all the wants and needs both for the children we were and the services for the adults. I can see in my minds eye spears, ellison toy store,French American bakery, places I would go in errands with my mom. Such a big world on a small street. Thank you Gary for keeping the memory alive:)
Cynthia Aguilar-Palas said I agree with Mary Ellen Peck! My mom worked at the Bob's Big Boy, Broadway in the WC Paza, Rick spent many afternoons at the Tumble Weed. We walked to the Food Giant with our little red wagon on a regular basis. Oh My Goodness so many, many more memories!!! I absolutely love this!
Rosanna Palas-Jones said Oh My! By the time it finished I had tears in my eyes... So many firsts. First place buying fabric at Grants, First Taco Bell, first date with hubby at Bahooka. When going to Greece went and talked to Chris at Chris J & B Burgers downtown. Bobs, Mc Donalds, In & Out , White Fronts... Goes on and on... Thanks!
Lorraine Ruiz Thank you Gary Cliser. Yesterday was the Anniversary of my mom's passing. Seeing this today and reliving so many memories filled me with joy. Thank you Gary, for this treasure.
