taco stands
Not to sound like a worn out record or CD, but do any of you sisters remember a taco stand near one of Dad's stores? What year was this? I don't even remember a summer when Beth and Katie stayed with them. Was auntie M in some kind of a time warp or what? Come on sisters refresh my memory. This is a blank. I still can't get over the fact that your parents let you stay with them, well with grandma ok, but grandpa was still around and we all know how unpredictable he was. I a wait more details to fill in the gap in my life.

I have no memory of a taco stand near-by either. We need to define "near-by." Maybe Katie and Beth did not mind walking a mile to get something to eat. They were both healthy girls. I think it made Mom happy to have Katie and Beth stay with Grandma and Grandpa. She loved being a Grandma and was generous to her grandchildren. Beth only did that one or two times because there was too much tension in the house.
It wasn't a taco stand, it was a Taco Bueno or something similar. Granmpa has so many different stores while I was growing up I could tell you which one it was. I know it was acutally in the city. All I remember was being at the store & the taco Resturant. Maybe Katie can contribute more of her memories.
beth i'v been thinking about the taco stand and i remember dad had a store tha looked mexican or something. It was after he sold the first store. there was a row of stores together. If you went across the street going east there was like a mini mall type thing. there was a big grocery store a hallmark a bookstore cottoneyed joes a teachers store. you guys had to have been pretty young. are sure someone wasn't with you? probably grandma would have been with you.
Hi, people. :) My memories of the tank-swimming, taco-eating afternoon are pretty fuzzy. I do, however, think that Beth and I went on our own to the taco joint, and we felt very grown up in our independence. Knowing us, we were probably wearing matching swimsuits, outfits, and sandals for this little excursion because Grandma was always very generous when we went shopping with her. :)
Hi,
I don't remember Katie getting to stay over with the grandparents...due to dad's little drinking problem. Did that actually happen?
