I
sometimes feel like I lived in Cambridge yesterday, but it has
been 45 years. I guess I might spend too much time living in the
past, but when it was a special place like Cambridge how can I
not go back in time to great memories. The reunion is still a
question mark for me. It's another very busy summer. Jim Arnold, Class of 1955 Pauline, that assignment was quite entertaining. After reading Joel's summary I went back to my paper route list and ran from Cobtown to Bucktown bringing up memories of so many stores. Maybe if I mention a few then it will jog other memories. First, one can't forget watching that Pelgas truck stop most afternoons to watch us practice football practice. It was usually Joel, Derings and sometime Mr. McWhorter who would show up and give us encouragement...even if we got beat the previous Saturday! Stops along the way includes Higgins Hardware Store so Billy could check in with his Dad before we drove to Lauderdale to play basketball. We all loved riding in that jeep. Bob Burns Pool /barber shop was a favorite for the older guys, especially watching those guys play the game. Dennis ice cream parlor served as a drop point for my papers but had the nicest display of candy. That is where the term, " look but don't touch" got its first meaning. Waiting on the bridge near Asgrow Seed for the Washington County Post latest edition was always a great time. We could ways try to count the fish in the stream under the bridge.. Continue down Main Street and you could always drop in to the library. No one, except the librarian was usually present but that beat walking around the building on the tiers of stones near each window! If I continue you'll all know how us kids enjoyed our lives in our town but a word to the wise...you only know the half of the story.!!-
