SODA FOUNTAINS (USUALLY) RULE


Howard Lake Drug - Howard Lake, MN

Stopped here on the way to the cabin this weekend. We'd been driving
by for years and never knew there was an old fashioned soda fountain
in this drug store. It's made of wood and it's old so by default it is
cool. The only problem is the people there weren't overly nice. Just
kind of ho-hummed when we told them how excited we were to find them.
Sometimes small town people just piss mjust smile and be welcoming and
open-minded. Is it really so hard?
