A Trip Back to your Childhood in Pine Island

This is for K, M, and S.  The old homeplace looks pretty much the same.

The house next door looks pretty nice. The Callahans own it now and rent out two apartments.

The clock tower is the same but new street lights are  really neat. They are all through town on the main street.
The Rainbow has the same name but a new look, new menu and new hours - closed on Monday and no breakfast. We were there in the morning, so it was still closed.
This is the old Variety store on the corner that became a pizza place and is now owned by a family that serves food all day long as well as pizza.
They don't let the old farmers come in a sit for hours and drink coffee and shove the tables together.  It is a nice place for families to eat.  The breakfast was GREAT!!

  1. Was it called the Olde Pine Theater when you were there? I feel sorry for the farmers who can't sit for hours and drink coffee. What do they do now?
