still standing...


vintage pecan sign 
Madison Florida

a familiar sight whenever I pedalled my
clunker bike to town.

 sign has been in place 60+ years.
only sold pecans here a few times before 
finding the shop one block over that gave a better price.

Jean and I would each fill a 2 pound bag with pecans,
too much work and impatience to fill a larger bag.
riding our bikes to town to sell them for 'pocket money'.
wasn't a lot of change..  maybe  50 cents.
but that was enough to buy the latest comic book 
and a candy bar.

Oh yes ...
