Nostalgia time for NoVa expatriates. I don’t remember that show but I do remember watching Sam & Friends on one of our local DC stations. Sam & Friends was a 15 “puppet” show by Jim Henson and his girlfriend/wife before they became famous as The Muppets.
I was in Arlington from summer 1956 to summer 1966. Parkington with its Hechts anchor was walking distance from me. McCrory’s. Giant Food. Hot Shoppes. Giffords Ice Cream. Putt-Putt. If I hadn’t moved away I’d have gone to Wakefield. Half of my classmates went to W-L. That was a great time to live there. Before the Beltway.
Hot Shoppes was great. I really miss it.
