Arab Israeli Six Day War. I was sixteen. That summer I came to Salt Lake from SoCal for a softball tournament, bought a Lovin' Spoonful album as a memento. Maybe from the same record store on Main Street. Sigh......... Windy, Light My Fire, Ode to Billy Joe, I’m a Believer…the first year for heart transplants, Earth Day, and Sesame Street.

I remember my cousin buying me Sgt. Peppers Lonely Heartclub Band album, at a record store on Main Street....but don't recall the name of the store. Those old enough, do you remember 1967? I certainly do, believe it or not! Just thinking back in time again….has anyone seen the new issue of Rolling Stone about the 40th anniversary of The Summer of Love….1967?

We used to take the bus downtown, remember Holly...and visited more places than the Deseret Gym! There was also Auerbachs, Chesters Drawers across the street where you could also buy some pretty cool clothes as well. Also, even though not on Main Street, there was the store Makoffs, which was upscale as well. I declined a job there and took one instead at Macys Market. (Makoffs would have paid $1.80 per hour, Macys paid a whopping $2.50 per hour) Down the street from Auerbachs was The Yardstick, a great fabric store. I'm rambling and will stop. As I told you, I was saddened to see the condition of Main Street. Something could be done to revitalize it, if only people cared.

You just took me down memory lane. When I was in high school, I was one of few young women who had jobs and I had the most beautiful clothes. When I married in 1971, I moved to Rhode Island to a Navy Base with my new husband. My wardrobe was admired by many high-class Easterners. This little girl from Utah was grateful for some well-selected outfits from Adrien and Emilie's. I do remember this store! You just took me down memory lane.
