Response to Re: That is where...

Golf Acres is where we went to see the pediatrician, Dr. Landon, I believe, from about 1965 to 1969. He smoked, a lot! At the end of the visit, children would be escorted by their parent to Dr. Landon's office, where he would take us on his knee, give us a smokey hug, and reach into a lower desk drawer FILLED with Wrigley's Juicy Fruit gum, and give us a stick. And out the door we went. It set up the next visit for success, and less trauma. He was brilliant!
