I have been meaning to take pictures of the remaining Blockbusters in my area. Will be interesting to explain to My twin baby Boys...You see, there were these places, where your Mom and I would wait in line for hours to pay 5 bucks, thats like 100 bucks today, to rent a single movie. I also remember freaking out when they switched to dvd. Heh. I still lament whenever I return to Fort Lauderdale, when I drive by the site of the former Peaches Records and Tapes store to find an empty lot.

Which location was it? There was a Peaches by the Galleria Mall on Sunrise Blvd. but it’s now a Hustler Hollywood store.

I lament this passing piece of Americana - the video rental store. The people at my town’s sole remaining Blockbuster seem friendly enough albeit with a bit of eccentricity thrown in for the sake of entertainment.
