Is the T & H still around?


No, it was replaced by one of the finer establishments in Ironton known as the "JAB"................ :mrgreen:

Hosscat, Are we swinging by Gambino's Pizza after the game on Friday or will it be Anderson's Pub?


Don't remember that one 85, it was probably there while I was in service........Butcherman, you out there, you are the oldest one on the preps so you should remember............ :mrgreen:

Turk, x's&o's does not like to talk about the pants deal. I am surprised you did not mention The Circle Bar(home of the Blue Tigers) and old man Kirtner sitting in front of his shop on N.2nd. As a kid I thought Mouse's place was the "Mouse House"?

You are right, I was thinking of the Mouse Trap in Colorado Springs....

My favorite place was Boggs Coffee Shop on Third Street best BBQ and onion rings in the area. What was in the building that now is C & S Guns?

What's next, a little Wood's Furniture Store sighting? James' Ice Ball Stand perhaps?

Or give me a little Shadybrook Restaurant and it's all good.

Come to think of it, a reopening of Goodie's would be pretty sweet also.

Now that we've all roamed down Ironton's geographical memory lanes [I've lived here 43 yrs, and some of the references were unfamiliar even to me] - back to the question about the Wolohan building.
Didn't some small Ashland company [manufacturing, I think, rather than retail] buy that building? I seem to remember reading about it in the Tribune; but it was quite a while ago, and I can't remember the specifics.

What was the name of the little store on 6th and Kemp? Mom used to go to their meat counter quite often.

Don't forget about a nice dinner at Stones. Wasn't that at 2nd and Park?


Jenkins Grocery. Loved going in there as a kid. He had a hot looking daughter!

How about Kings Drive-in...we would stop there after Church and get a cold frosty Root Beer ... They were the best!!!!

How about lunch at Kresgee's(sp)...use to like to eat there.

I really liked Kline's cause of the balcony... it was neat..

Use to go to Hetty's Lunch in Coal Grove and take a quarter and come home with a sack of Penny candy.
