Yep, even in a quiet bayou town in Louisiana, my maternal grandmother owned a neighborhood grocery in an old raised building. Less than 1/2 mile away was another grocery store on my paternal grandparent's street. These types of stores were scattered plus the fruit and vegetable trucks and the milk trucks that would go up and down the streets. Ooohh and the ice cream trucks and snowball stands - that was the life!
