Road trip yesterday

I've made several trips to Callaway Stock Yards on I70 in Missouri. Always wanted to see this but never took the time. So yesterday my wife and I took a ride. Well worth the trip.

It' a step back in time isn't it. If you liked that , next
time you go to the salebarn check out Wright's
General Store in beautiful downtown Calwood .
(South side of 70 on the way to Fulton.) it's smaller
but every bit as much a throwback to days gone by.
As a child we'd walk there from my Aunt's. If it was
late June we bought ladyfingers and cherry bombs
at the firecracker stand ( which was made from
those small boards used for pallets.) Cal-wood is
the crossroads of the world. Says so on the sign i
believe. Calwood also has an excellent lamb dinner
first Saturday morning in October. It was a beautiful
fall weekend here. We checked out that salebarn on
our honeymoon. It was still kind of new then and i
hadn't been to a sale barn in a long time. Wife
enjoyed it too as her relatives owned a sale barn in
Watertown SD. Glad you enjoyed Cranes. When i
was a teenager in the mid-70's the old man still ran
it i believe. Wasn't "historic" then. It was just the
only store for miles.
