B.C. B.C. “Change is one thing progress is another. “Change” is scientific “progress” is ethical change is indubitable whereas progress is a matter of controversy.
Our dealing with change is a little less studious more to do with feelings the hold memories evoke Before change or B.C. I guess we should start with a king B.C. King was before Ridings the one stand out Memory was a kid who was sponsored by Mopar I remember his side kick Strawberry Austin but way Back then he raced like a demon and BC and Mopar fit the bill as before mentioned Glen Walters was On his own I don’t know about in Nashville but around here on his own and out in the front all the time.
B.C. It was Tanners junkyard now Roy’s everyone has a Harry Tanner story how I miss all of the Tanners My story we walked out past the scale through the gate stood there on the road Harry in his old suit and That familiar hat he seemed to always wear he had his hands behind his back he looked at his iron Stacked across the road he said I don’t know we ship this across the pond to the Japanese and then they Shoot it back at us I don’t think he was trying to be funny but he hit my funny bone.
B.C. It used to be the liberty gas station now BP I don’t gun them for the gulf I just remember when gas Was twenty five cents a gallon no hullabaloo just a small little friendly gas station the price was right Back then when there were so many exciting places to go in our home town.
B.C. The Dutch Mill had everything and then some you could get main line goods or some things Bordered being off the wall I just remember the pleasant good feeling I would get just walking from one Section to another one they of course weren’t the mighty Wall Mart nor did they have to be we did live And quiet well before their arrival I bet we would make it if they left don’t panic the rumors are not true They will be here for a long time and the future generation will hold fond memories just like we do of the Dutch Mill.
B.C. Remember the wedge in the family mother father and son they had the concision stands at the park Ball field and pool they use to freeze those zero candy bars like a rock man there is a whole lot of Knawing going on you had to go to over to the little standard gas station for pops Grapette almost ice Cold and a Great visit and conversation with Mr Johnson he was so pleasant a true ambassador for all Who paid a Visit.
B.C. I know this is more of a guy thang but anyone remember those great tennis shoe adds P.F. Flyers and Red Ball Jets hopefully they had ladies shoes.
