Ty's Take
Somebody pulled out the old photo albums this week, and that's when you remember what this town looked like before the interstates changed everything. Route 66 ran straight through here once, and Lebanon was the kind of place where you stopped because you had to, not because you knew where you were going. The boat plants came later and stayed, which says something about Laclede County's stubborn way of building things that last. Those pictures in the Record remind you that nostalgia isn't just sentiment around here, it's evidence. We've reinvented ourselves more than once, and we're still standing.
