Wow...... It's a small world after all. Back in the early 70's I bought my 40 Chevy panel truck from a guy in Spencer IA. The guy owned an auto parts store on the west side of the main drag. Can't remember the guys name or the name of the auto parts store??? That was a long time ago, and I'm gettin' on in years ya' know. I think it was an independant store.

Also, I met my wife in Spencer. I was workin' on my bike and a buddy of mine stopped by and said, hey lets run to spencer, I know some girls at the business collage there. We went, raided the dorm, met a couple girls. Ended up makin' a few trips to Spencer after that til' she got out of school. The rest is history. I lived in a town about an hour and a half from Spencer (Titonka) and my wife was from (Britt) not far from Titonka.

BTW: I see you're from Mason City. We go through there a few times a year going back to see family. Well, since they opened the 4 lane hwy. "Avenue of the Saints", we go by it. I have a high school buddy that lives in Clear Lake. We stop to see him just about every time we go out. Got another H.S. bud that works at the Mason City Hospital.
