On my way to lunch at 11 in the breeze at the Pelham Diner I thought about my jeweler from my hometown of Winfield. Travis Webb, my dad's best friend, would eat lunch everyday at 11 at Wesley's Grill, a quick jaunt down the way from Webb's Jewelry. Travis would kill a Mountain Dew, turning it straight up and not putting it down till it was gone in one swig. He would usually eat the beef stew at the Grill. Them was good old days growing up in a small Alabama town in the 60's. I drink fountain Mt. Dew today in his honor. I still wear the wedding ring he sold me in 1980.
