Karon was pointing out stores that were there when she was a girl in the late 40s/early 50s. She was unsure about some. I took some photos of the Lenhardt's Insurance office, which was where John Meidinger had his Shoe/Leather/Harness Shop.
By then we got to the Entzmingers Junk Shop (314 Main St.)
Karon and Dean Entzminger were in a discussion about where everything was. Dean knew, "My family has been here since 1957." But Karon's memories go back further. I asked about the Krieger Theater.
Dean said, "It was torn down two years ago." He pointed out the empty lot where it stood. See my 2017 photos of Gackle or https://cinematreasures.org/theaters/15194 and https://www.flickr.com/photos/openspacesprairieplaces/albums/with/72157665963520425
