Phone photo 203


McCleary, Washington.

I always liked this unique little square poking into the greater McCleary megaopolis skyline from one of my all-time favorite grocery stores. There are stories in town that it was actually an apartment for a store employee long ago and today is haunted. Pretty neat, eh?

This store was a regular stop for me from age 8 to high school for buying the newest comic books and thus shares the blame for how I turned out as an adult. Back in the early 1960s they actually had a bench where kids could sit and read comics while the parents shopped.
