    small world.......i live only three miles north east of the plazas.......... been wanting to get a pic of of the sign for the North Benton ice cream stand, if you get a chance, or if it's not too far out of the way, could you snap a pic of it and post it?, would be awesome if you could, no biggie if not, not sure when i'll get back down that way, how close are you to it?

    I'll get one of it, great old ice cream stand. Got my old cat out front of it as a stray kitten. He was begging food and ice cream from folks so I brought him home, named him "Custer" (short for custard)! :thumbs:

    very cool!.........hey, while we're talking ice cream stands, do you know what the one was called that got torn down recently that stood abandoned for years near Barber airport on 225 almost directly across from Lowe road by the lake?, it's still shown via google maps, but i know that it's finally been removed, it was a cool vintage 60's style stand...........

    I always liked this one down the road from it. Looking up close you can see that the poles were put through the hull, the boat was not added later. This place is up for sale now.
