I remember a trip to Put in Bay, Ohio, and we stopped in a great little place and ..well, I made it back somehow. These adventures was when I was a lot younger but I loved those Lemon Drops. Now that I’m older n supposed to be smarter, I don’t have those times anymore. In fact, I haven’t had a drink since my 75th birthday and I behaved!
