Title: Stepping back in time at the local hardware store
Post by: tkaz on February 05, 2015, 07:01:46 pm
I've been meaning to take some photos of our local hardware store here in NC, they have a bunch of Coke and soda stuff all around the building and still have a working Pepsi reach in cooler selling glass bottles.  There's a couple of Coke buttons, a Progress cooler hanging from the ceiling, signs everywhere, and a Westy Standard sitting all the way in the back up high on a shelf.  No jaw dropping items but there aren't many places like this left, I just enjoy going out there to get a taste of how it used to be.

Bushhogging: mowing down an overgrown field, most of the time with heavy brush
Tractoring: field plowing, tilling, stuff like that

Isn't this the same Pepsi used in the movie Tremors?
