Tell us about your hometown.

[Arkansas Granny]

14. My home town was literally a wide spot in the road in rural SW Missouri.

There was a grocery store, a community building, a cemetery and a half dozen houses. A creek ran through town that was crossed by a low water bridge that had signs on each side that would tell the depth when it was underwater. We lived about a mile away.

The last time I was there the store building was gone, but the community building was still there. Most of the houses I knew had been replaced or just torn down.
