Both of my kids went to Cathedral. One moved on to Teurlings, the other to STM. Both were valedictorians (or whatever each of them called it) when they finished high school.. Fatima just had a better sports program, lots of travel ball moms and dads. I’m sure its education was about the same.

Hardware store.

Guidry's Hardware on Jefferson in Lafayette. I want to sit on those front stools, drinking coffee out of a paper cup, and show people where the Loge frying pans and weedeater string is.

Then just talk with everyone the rest of the time.

When they mention new spots in the Old Front Nine, sure sounds like that’ll become a reserved lot. That’s a hit to a lot of free parking.

Posted by ChuckM on 6/2/25 at 7:41 am to themetalreb

Bought our first VCR (RCA), blank tapes (TDK) and rented our first few movies from New Generation on Florida.

That was before the mom and pops and before Blockbuster.
