Having grown up in Momence IL which is a farming town 60 miles straight south of Chicago and 10 miles from Indiana (another 4 miles or so to US 41) your description here brings back many similar memories.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

I remember eating brains and eggs at my grandparents' home when I was growing up. If you put a deep fried pig brain sandwich on the menu at Little Jack's I will definitely order it!

Describes so much of the Mississippi Deep South I grew up in. Pictures are perfect. Happy Father’s Day Brooks!
