The Red's Taxi post.

By Lucille Van Son

To all of you who shared in the Red's Taxi post, and especially Bea who initiated it, I found some very interesting pictures this evening.  I am not trying to promote a business, but it just happened I went out for ice cream this evening and ended up out at Dave's.  (and it was sugar-free and good). On the walls inside, were pictures of old Batavia (and I mean old)!  I saw a picture of Sacred Heart Church during the flood of 1942, I saw a picture of the Bus Station, the old railroad Depot that was where Salvation Army is now,  the Kendall gas station, Joy's Liquor Store, Dean's Drugs, Sloat's Tire Shop and there were others!  I just can't remember them all. 

I just wanted to share this with all that took that short trip down memory lane the beginning of the week.  I and I thought the bar idea was a good one.

There's a few businesses around Batavia that feature pictures from the past. Jackson St. Grille, if I remember correctly, and of course Main St. Pizza, which even has a mural painted on the wall.

Thanks Lucille. What a great excuse to go out for ice cream :) It isn't something I often do.
ummmmmm, tomorrow is suppose to be hot, might be a good day.
The mural at Main St. Pizza and the pictures at Jackson St. Grille are great.
Yep, I can feel a bar count coming soon. Harold will probably kick us all out.
