Family Field Trip: Watson’s Drug Store

 

Watson’s has been right where it stands for over 100 years. It is still a working drug store with a pharmacy as well as a wonderful diner. Offering a wide aray of long forgotten sodas and shake combinations. My grandparents came to Watson’s, my parents came to Watson’s and today I took my boys to Watson’s. Just feels right.

This wasn’t a full blown field trip- just a little lunch and a quick walk around Orange Circle (or Orange Plaza for the historians reading) through the antique shops and silly stores. Including a stop in the Army-Navy Surplus store. Just because you can never do enough firearm and camo shopping with your kids I say.

Honest to God, Marce – my FAVORITE part of your blog is your videos. Probably because I get to SEE YOU!

The french dip wasn’t lost on me. I teared up a bit.

You’re such a good mom. For real.

Only kids understand the lure of BLUE FOOD.
