My mother's mother we called 'Hello', see the full story on that in my Black Friday listing in 2008. She always went shopping on Black Friday, she'd pour over the ads in the paper after dinner Thanksgiving day, and usually spent some time at Rich's in downtown Atlanta. Rich's got bought up by federated dept stores (the Macy's folks) in 1975, and finally stopped being Rich's in 1991... I have fond memories of that store and those simple times. Ron and I went to Wal*Mart this afternoon to pick up a couple of things, while the parking lot was packed, there didn't seem to be that many people in the store. Maybe everyone was shopped out by the time we got there. We've got a hockey game tonight... which will be fun.
Love your clock! What a nice memory.
ReplyDeleteYou were brave to go to WalMart today. Have fun at the hockey game.
