Jefferson Iowa has three funeral homes and one grocery store and I find that interesting and pathetic. It seems the city fathers made a bad decision which led to the loss of the competition. Unfortunate and not likely to be rectified.
Anyway...on to a lighter subject. It has been many years since I have shopped for groceries in the old home town. I kept running across familiar faces and they would look at me and try to figure out how and why they should know me and I would look at them and try to come up with the name. I was successful on a few.
It isn't any wonder that people would not recognize me. I have changed considerably in the last 30 years if you can believe it.
