Grampaw Hoots

My gpa O lived a half block away on Muscatine Ave. Muscatine was an ordinary 2-lane street but actually it was a coast to coast hwy, hwy 6. A few large trucks would grind up the hill there at night but during the day there was little out of state traffic.

One day Iowa beat Illinois in a rare football win. Grandpa placed a chair out front--remember this was Hwy 6--and heckled at all the Illinois plated cars to GO HOME !!
