THE POPCORN STAND

I was in Radville, SK on the long weekend for my home town's 100th Birthday and Home-coming.  It was a lot of fun, but the most amazing was buying popcorn and candy again at Eva's Popcorn Stand.  Some of my best childhood memories are of standing on the old coke boxes and picking out penny and nickle candies and spending every penny of the 50 cents we got to spend!  The replica is exactly like the old stand right down to the little tray that Eva used to put the candies on as you picked them out! 

Here was the first glimpse of it:



Wendy stood in line for popcorn only to find out they were already sold out - this was the first night!



Later Dory got popcorn and "one each of the little candies and oh, some Popeye cigarettes"!!
No longer only 50 cents, it cost her $2.50!!   (Garnet and Michael are watching)


And there around the corner at the other window was Sue!!
