My family moved there when I was 1, we moved away when I was 13. I went to Columbia Elementary - I remember the teachers showing us how to use snake bite kits, how to recognize an rattler and "don't leave the school grounds!". I went to Carmi for middle school.

the primary school. Grades 1 through 3. The library sits on that site now. Where Midas Muffler is there was a trolley car near the river which was a coffee shop. Before the Plaza was built.... it was an open field with a big faded red barn in the middle.

Been here a long time, even before being a resident, and have to say you win digger. Remember the Green Grocer?
