Rick, Neat stuff!

When we first moved to Missouri (1980) the "Big City" newspaper from Kirksville (population then 14,000) ran columns on the smaller local towns. We don't live in any town, but when my wife's brother and sister-in-law came to visit us, they were shocked to see that their visit was included in the Greentop Items column (I guess someone included us in their gossip).

So much has changed, and much is lost as time goes by. Nice to remember the way it was on this Independence Day.
