Rexall Drug Store

As a child I spent hours sitting at the old soda fountain, drinking my chocolate malt only 25 cents was the cost. While old shep my favorite dog of all time waited patently for me, while I read all the comics on the comic rack. Little Lula was my favorite, loved her and Tubby and all the adventures they had. Walt Disney Comics and Stories always had a three part story, which met I always had to buy one each month, loved Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck. Old shep would wait outside for me up to three hours, untied, what a dog he was. Loved this old drug store, it was so cool in the summer time with it's A.C. felt so good to escape the heat. From 1952 until 1956 this was my safe Haven to go to my old little world, I could leave all of my troubles outside and enjoy my self. I would take shep a bowl of water that the druggist gave me, he would wag his tail, drink some water, then he would give me a kiss with water dripping down his mouth. Went back to Rexall Drug Store, in 1990 and it was gone, no longer could I go inside and refresh my dear memories, so will just have, to store them in my mind and remember those beautiful days of long ago. wrote 8-24-08
