Five Random Places And Things About My Town That A Tourist Should See Beyond The Obvious
Disclaimer: I’ve been doing lists since I started this blog, well before I ever stumbled across someone else’s collection of lists. I’m not stealing. So there.
1. The Mr. Turkey “tailings plant” just south of town where they burn the beaks and feet and you can smell the mess for a thousand yards in any direction.
2. The darkness of the beer refrigeration case on Sundays in every supermarket (dry county on Sundays for beer/wine)
3. The parking lot behind the trees at Peach Plains Elementary School, which for me was the best place in High School to park and make out (yes, with a girl).
4. The way greasy bacon looks through thick, wafting cigarette smoke in the air at the Rendezvous Restaurant on a Saturday morning.
5. The bottom of a sugar cone from the Front Porch Ice Cream Parlor, where they always have (and hopefully always will) dropped a candy corn in the bottom of the cone before scooping their ice cream in.
