8.16- Thursday

Downtown Littleton. Below is the Thayer’s Hotel. It’s is now a B&B but it does not matter. It was there on the third floor balcony, as seen in the picture below, that I proposed to Carla. The very next day we went across the street to the Parker Market Place where she found and purchased the dress she wore on our wedding day. The Parker shop was owned, as we discovered, by the wife of the son (Stanley Parker Jr.) of the man I worked for in the sixties and seventies as a pharmacist.

Dog sleeping in store.

Porfido’s used to be, and I’m sure still has the best pizza in town. Spent many a dollar there during my single days at the time. Below is Chutter’s. It used to be called Parker Drug Store, where I worked as a pharmacist, but that was a hundred years ago.

Up is Chutter’s inside. Looks much better and more exciting than the Parker Drug Store. Below is another picture of Chutter’s.

Above is Pollyanna, the Littleton child mascot. Once again, the Thayer’s Hotel…good memories.

This is the Democratic bench. The Trumpblican bench is on the other side of the doorway.

We enjoyed a couple of hours touring Littleton again and reliving memories so old they’re prime to be forgotten. It was about a mile up from Littleton off the Franconia Road that we owned our first home, on Morrison Hill Dr I believe. On many occassions we enjoyed a picnic in our back yard when I came home for lunch with Michael sitting on the edge on the picnic blanket. Like all trips they come to an end. The following pictures are from our drive home.

Below, I purchased another t-shirt and Carla purchased a box of “chocolate covered orange peal” candies from Chutter’s Candy Store.
