I had the opportunity, by way of the memorial service, to return to my home town over the weekend. There were a lot of things I recognized but as a whole the town has changed quite a bit. Stores and restaurants that were small and friendly have given way to the commercial giants such as Wal Mart, McDonalds, Burger King, etc. I had a lot of good times in these little restaurants and hate it that they are no longer there. Even though I was in town for most of the day I did not see anyone that I either knew or went to school with. Probably just as well as it only makes me realize my age when I do meet someone I know but haven't seen in years. I try to tell myself that they have gotten older, I'm still the same.
