The hot dog place on Eastern was named Cook's. At one time there was a golf driving range behind it. I earned a few dollars picking up the golf balls in those little wire baskets - five cents a basket, I think. It wasn't much and it didn't last long. I usually blew it all on the best chili dogs and mugs of real root beer in the whole world. Could life ever be better than THAT? Larry R.
