Labor Day Weekend at Bill Williams Restaurant & Motel, September, 1958
I don't want to put too much personal stuff on this site, but I thought I'd post the following video. Some of you may remember Bill Williams Restaurant & Motel just east of Richmond on the south side of Highway-90A. My grandmother, Mamie Adams Rachuig, took her 5 grandchildren there for a Labor Day treat in 1958 just before school started. We had an enjoyable weekend, as you'll see in the video.

Your grandmother was so pretty,...just like your mom and your aunt. Looks like you guys had a good time. Great videos...
ReplyDeleteJanice: My memory of this weekend was wrong for several years. I've always thought it happened in 1957, but when I saw Bridget in this film, I couldn't believe she was less than a year old. It finally dawned on me that it was 1958. It was the weekend before we began the 3rd grade. I remember Punt Helmcamp was there too. Don't know why - he may have worked there or decided to take a little R&R at the local resort. CK
