Nows and Forevers

I was on my way last week to revisit a part of my past when I ended up running into another one, in the same place.

This is Florida, New York, near where I used to live and work in the Hudson Valley. I have a connection to the town, but haven’t been back in a long time. On my way to where I was going, I went by this: A Finast trailer!

Haven’t seen one in a long time. When I was growing up, Finast was a big grocery chain but it went out in the early ’90s when I was still living in Connecticut. It’s one of the places we used to go for groceries.

I don’t know but I don’t think it was there the last time I was in Florida, more than 16 years ago. Gave me something to think about, seeing as I was there for a totally different type of nostalgia.
