It was a good time to step back in history. I'm 60 years old and we had a drug store/soda shop in my small town when I was growing up, nice to remember

We have visited it on several occasions, and I still love the feeling of being in the old drugstore when I was a kid. Lots of fun.

On the grounds of the Indiana State Fair, the Hook's American Drugstore Museum is an interesting little museum -- and also a good place to stop for ice cream and other old fashion treats. Too small to justify a special trip to the State Fairgrounds for most people, you should really go there if you are in the area.
