whacky, oldsters with heads full of old places, now gone and old history
now passed and old advice, ancient and repeated and ignored by generation after generation.

Re: I agree with your sentiment of saving old places. I also agree with your
yes, saul-relative, Dos Equis Amber, our favorite, though the American market version is different from the old flavor.
The old Pacifico on a hot Mexican beach was also yummy in the old days....but, all flavors change for the American market and I think that it is a mistake to do that, but, obviously, the manufacturers do not.
And some old places are worth saving, but who are we to say, as thousands of 'old places' have been razed over the centuries and that is progress in the dictionary.
Thanks for reading and commenting.

Re: ...one person's magic place is another's New World, no?
Of course, majroj, it will be a very tall business location, I'm sure as Speedway Blvd. is all business.
Thanks for the birthday wishes....my children bought me canvases to paint upon and a steak dinner and Mom got me the wonderful book, Guatemalan Rainbow by Vecchiato.
