Ty's Take
Those old photographs in today's Record take you back to when Lebanon looked different but felt the same, which is probably why people still stop by the office asking if we've got more prints stashed somewhere. You see the storefronts along Main, the way Route 66 moved through town before the interstate, the river crossings that mattered more when you couldn't just hop on I-44, and you understand why this place held on. The boat plants, the fishing culture, Bennett Spring, the farms spreading out toward Rolla, the crossroads business, they're all rooted in something older than last year's production numbers or this season's trout opening. Pictures like these remind you that Lebanon's not just surviving its geography, it's built on it.
