Our apartment on 30th Ave. was right next door to Terry's Bar. Always filled with neighborhood
regulars - mostly our dads! - it was the place everyone went on Sunday afternoons to watch a
game or just relax. I remember when the Mister Softee truck came around, all of us kids would
run into Terry's and ask for ice cream money - which we always got.
Also, the Backstreet Bar that used to be on the corner of 30th St. & 30th Ave. - where Tradefair's
parking lot is now. Dark inside, always gave the impression of being cool and sophisticated - at least
to a teen.
I miss those places.....
