Alimentary, my dear Watson.

Though just a child, I do remember being entranced by the AAA Trip-ticks (sp?) maps and directions and with theirrecommendations. Wonder how much a role that played in the evolution?
That makes sense. My early years spent vacationing in Maine (8 hours on the road) have left me with fond ideas of diners - the ones with the mini-jukeboxes at the tables. Perhaps my parents hated the food, I don’t remember, I would just eat bacon or grill cheese and tomato soup - my go-to lunch.
