    Lunch with Milton Hopkins. Brian picked me up at the apartment and drove us to Dinglewood Pharmacy here in Columbus, Georgia. Our friend from Harris County; Brian went to High School with Milton was meeting us at the Pharmacy diner for a late lunch. It's always good to spend just idle time with Milton.

    What an awesome old school pharmacy/diner. A miracle it's still in existence. I'm from the Woolworth and Walgreens diner era. Fantastic old timey place. Thanksgiving blessings from Chicago. ❤

      Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family tomorrow! I remember eating at the diner in Woolworth's at Columbus Square Mall. Both are gone now. Yes, Dinglewood Pharmacy has been around since the 1920's, I believe.

    This was fun. I love when you do these kinds of videos, it is like being there with you all. I remember the Dinglewood Pharmacy live and the not so cheery greeting from the waitress since it was close to closing time. Hahaha! A scramble dog, I have not seen one of those since you went out with Robert a long time ago! I know you ordered extra onions, right Walter? The funniest part is the backdrop behind Milton! I guess it Depends on how you look at it!! Hahahaha!! More conversation next time if you can do it without music in the background. I just enjoy hearing you all sit and jaw. 😊

      I know! I kept just giving up about the Dependable background! The entire time I was shooting this, I wondered how am I going to make this into a video? It was just chopped conversation. I hope to do better next time. And next time, I hope to have a steak sandwich! Apparently it is very close to the G-Mart steak sandwiches. By the way, HAPPY THANKSGIVING, Sondra!

      Ken has always called us "you monkeys!" ( When he wasn't calling us dummies! Sometimes it was "monkey dummy!" The double whammy!)
      Anyway, Milton mentioned Uber, so I said that Ken is an Uber Driver, but he only hauls chimpanzees! (Monkeys in Ken's eyes. He doesn't know the difference between a chimpanzee, monkey, or us.)

      @WalterMallardPhotography  9 місяців тому

      It's a hot dog in a bun. Those are sliced into small sections, covered with chili and oyster crackers. I like ketchup and mustard on mine. People have onions and cheese on theirs as well as pickles. I did have pickles on mine this time. But I prefer it simple, ketchup and mustard.
