It seems we were always stopping at the corner store to buy candy, or the corner drug store to get cold medicine ...<br /><br />They were wonderful places that I can still see and smell.Lowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15305748075301453010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462606.post-4792141517784935922009-12-09T17:50:28.786-05:002009-12-09T17:50:28.786-05:00Caroline - That picture is pertty old.

I need to get an update. <br /><br />Marcheline - I can't think of when I've last been to Walmart. <br /><br />Jarart - Nice memories!<br /><br />Doug - Hate to hear that. I thought Canada was doing better at this stuff.<br /><br />Frank - Speaking of coffee, some of our corner stores are offering soup and sandwiches. That seems to be working nicely.Charlestonjoanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12590582268028752174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462606.post-62409129066136334852009-12-09T13:08:41.018-05:002009-12-09T13:08:41.018-05:00Charlies is my corner store of choice!Charlies is my corner store of choice!Caroline in the Cityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04303541143351379860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462606.post-81800585359465380862009-12-09T12:21:23.981-05:002009-12-09T12:21:23.981-05:00The only way to keep these places is to shop there...The only way to keep these places is to shop there, and not at WalMart. <br /><br />Word!Marchelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11201825708442679157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462606.post-34335570950608573882009-12-09T11:59:35.561-05:002009-12-09T11:59:35.561-05:00These pictures brought back such memories!

I can remember my grandfather walking me down to the corner store for a candy treat when I was small. Now it seems the chain stores, Circle K or Seven/Eleven, is all most kids will remember.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17469878511196407233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462606.post-22361822588174587672009-12-09T08:37:35.626-05:002009-12-09T08:37:35.626-05:00Those are prettier to look at than the ones here. ...Those are prettier to look at than the ones here.

Your shots capture them so well and scream, shop here..I'm local, friendly. Come in and have a cup of coffee, get the newspaper and a smile. Wonderful series and your words are right on!Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04998414080562162677noreply@blogger.com
