watering trough on the Monroe Street side on the Southeast

off Monroe on Perry Street in the sixties the best record store in this town

the back entrance to Sears where they had baby chicks and chainsaws that my father used

also had their automobile shop I think it was across Monroe Street from there I

the street was the Pekin quick lunch I remember seeing the theater

a place where people from all walks of life came together and they list of the

their money and it was just a slice of life in Montgomery Alabama in the fifties and sixties
