When we lived in Butte my mother would give me a list of items to go buy. I would put my brother Scott in the stroller and walk the six blocks or so to Penney's, Mode O'Day, and Woolworth's to do my shopping. I remember taking my brother to Penney's for his first professional photo, and later taught him to sip form a straw at the soda fountain in Woolworth's. I bought the yarn at Woolworth's for my first major knitting project, it was a royal blue cardigan sweater with white Scottie dogs on it, made for my baby brother. (we had a West Highland Terrier named Willie at the time, double meaning!)
And I still have the sweater! Though it is getting tighter as the years pass.
