Main Street in Columbia was magic to me - a trinket or candy from McClellan's, my new yellow dress from upstairs at Penney's so I could stay the week with my Granny and go to Bible school with my cousin, visiting my Uncle at the Western Auto where he worked with all those bicycles... those were the best days spent with the best people.

This memory of Columbia will forever remain in my heart. Ben Franklin’s was my favorite store. Mama brought me my rabbit there. She also would give me a dollar to spend there on Saturday.
