Marion Corbin Liked to go here after the pool with 6 pence or so

Suzanne Tones Wolfe This was next door to where my Nana Tones lived. I remember it well. When my Nana sold her house it was also turned into a milk bar. Think it still exists today

Joan Reynolds Vera and I would always shop in this shop after spending several hours in the pools next door.

My FIL ....Al Rennie leased this building off Rathbuns and turned it into the Sante Fe milk bar. He was travelling through the Coast on his way to catch a ship to America where he was to be a cowhand ....but........he met and fell in love with Lillian Steele.....he then joined the Police Force and married Lil..
