SynopsisGrowing Up Smalltown captures the innocence of a magical time filled with hula hoops, flat tops and butch wax, glass milk bottles, and little candy buttons stuck on paper rolls. You'll identify with many of the memories like "Jessie's Drugstore," where Jim bought rings in bulk to give to his little 2nd grade girlfriends, or "My Experiences With The Evils Of Tobacco" when his hillbilly, great-grandpa shared his home-grown tobacco plug, or "Staying All Night At Grandma's" where the shadows, the closet, and the alarm clock served as a triple threat to Jim's very life! As you journey back to a time that seems so safe, simple, and satisfying, you will begin to relive your own memories and realize the truth of Dr. Seuss' statement, "You will never know the value of a moment until it become a memory.", Growing Up Carlisle captures the innocence of a magical time filled with hula hoops, flat tops and butch wax, glass milk bottles, and little candy buttons stuck on paper rolls.
