They have a creepy, full color Ronald McDonald statue sitting on a bench outside the in-store McDonalds at the local Walmart. Can’t even look at it while skirting past on the way to the vegetable section. I feel a desperate urge to shout warnings at any kids sitting on the bench but have always managed to restrain myself. Barely.

When I was a little girl, my great aunt and uncle ran a little grocery store out of one room of their house. This was before supermarkets took over and there were little grocery stores in every neighborhood. He had a little produce, pantry items and a meat counter. If you wanted a sandwich, he would cut a slab of lunchmeat, put it on white bread and smear a little mayo on it.

He lived just a block from one of the grade schools in town and had the most expansive penny candy counter I've ever seen. When we went to visit, I was given a nickel or a dime to spend and Uncle Jess would made sure that my bag was full to the brim.

I remember the Coke box was the kind where the bottles stood in cold water and had an opener on the side so you could take the caps off the bottles. It kept beverages really cold.
