Lakeside at 9
Well I was there.. Being directionally challenged I was about 5 minutes late and since I had driven around the perimeter of the mall once and didn't see a Ruby Tuesday's sign I ended up parking over by the food court. Walked both levels and then left. Man oh man has that area ever developed since the last time I was out that way. Back then coming upon Lakeside Mall was like being in the movie, the Wizard of Oz and walking up on Oz.. (In other words an oasis in the middle of fields) Now there are so many other businesses there it could easily be missed.
Ok so it was over 20 years ago.. Maybe even closer to 25 as Monkey Wards was still open. None the less, man has that area ever grown! Would have been nice to meet some of you, especially USTA but such is life..
