I drove thru Pepper Place today but it was so busy and hot I did not stop. I cruised thru the Southside, did not stop, but from the car revisited old haunts from the 70’s. I drove thru the Hardee’s on Valleydale and realized again why most Hardee’s have closed. I spent time at the Hoover B & N but was told the employee lady I like didn’t work there anymore. Then I went home.
