    About the time LBJ was dragging us into vietnam I was a little boy on Horner street I would vist Middleton grocery on hwy 31 next to Eugene McClaine’s trailways gas station. (what ever happened to Eugene’s spider monkey?), I can still in my minds eye see Miz Gladys and Mr Haskew behind the counter, fine people. We were Americans back then buddy.
