There was a Buster Brown's right across the street I am pretty sure. Besides a Walgreens (always ate lunch there when I was hanging with my dad). Not sure if Mr Bert owned the shoe store though.

Anyway. Dude bought a lemon from caddy dealer in BR. Dealer would not replace car. Went to court. Dealer won so dude wrote LEMON on car and parked it in front yard. Dealer sued dude for slander won again. Judge ordered dude to stop so he buried the car rt where it was parked for years

It seems very few remember The Quarterdeck Club and the Marlin Club which were located behind The Oak Manor Motel. I had some great times there with the family back in the '60's.
