One of my most precious memories is going to visit Grandma and Grandpa Bryant on Cool Springs Road near Opp, AL. We went basically every Sunday afternoon. I have so many good memories from that place.
Tonight I had a fresh little onion with my vegetable burger and soup for dinner. As I looked at the blade on the onion, the memory hit me. We used to cut those blades off and use them for drinking straws. That was long before we could even find drinking straws to purchase at Mr. Drayton Smith's store in new town in Elba, AL.
Ah, it was something to do. It doesn't take fancy stuff to entertain some children. You ought to try it sometime, just for the fun of it.
