PEANUT JUNCTION
Where Memories Come Together
When I think back to my youth, I fondly remember the fun
of growing up in a small town in northern Michigan. My friend Sally and I
would often walk to the corner store down the hill from my Grandpa's house
for treats and goodies. This little corner store was located at the
junction of our road and the highway -- a place referred to by locals as
Peanut Junction.
Every town in America probably has a Peanut Junction of its own -- a
place that conjures up memories of childhood fun and friends, laughter and
tears, childish pranks, and innocence lost. Though I have no family tie to
Peanut Junction or that little corner store, Peanut Junction is reminiscent
of the good times and close friends I had while growing up in this small
town.
As a salute to all the little Peanut Junctions across the country,
thank you for being the catalyst that refreshes the memories and the
lasting friendships developed while growing up in that wonderful little
town.
I hope you enjoy this site.
Thanks for visiting and come back soon!
