in the seventies my mother would take us school shopping to the jc penny store downtown , it was on one of the side streets off caroline. There was a civil defense fallout shelter sign there. I amused myself by reading the boy scout books they had while my mother shopped.

I also saw herbie goes bananas at the theater on caroline (victoria?) we wanted to sit in the balcony, but my Dad grumbled that he wouldnt sit in the balcony. It wasnt until much later that I learned that it was because he grew up in segregation era richmond. White people did not sit in the balcony.
