Cobble Hill

This evening I drove to the village of Cobble Hill. I knew of an old building that was formerly Scales Bakery. When I attended George Bonner Middle School, a Scales was in my class. And George Bonner operated a hardware store in the village.

When I arrived on Garland Street, I saw that the building was still intact but weathered. The bakery name had faded, and down the street stood a faded 1961 Pontiac Catalina.

The bakery was in the building with the false front as seen behind the car. I have been in the house when a computer technician lived there in the nineties.
