Does anyone remember a place called Kohler City?  It was a thriving business when I was a young girl.  Just north of Herculaneum and south of Arnold on the old highway 61/67 sat this rather pieced-together building.  It is indeed still there, but more or less losing it's curb appeal if you compare it to today's standards!  It was one of those stores that my dad was attracted to like a bee on honey!  It had every what-not and thing-a-ma-jig known to humanity!  If you were looking for something unusual, unique, or unexpected, every junk-hearted, nit-picking, curious clansmen went to Kohler City!  I suppose I need to do a Google search and add some info here when I have time, but for now, I simply had to post these nostalgic reminders of a day-gone-by.  Of course this road was the main highway "to the city" from my small town of Potosi Missouri.  There were a couple of Motels, Diners and even a drive-in ice cream place between my home and the city lights of St. Louis, if my memory serves me correctly.  It was not only a fun place to stop, but also a reminder that we were almost to our city destination in those weeks before Christmas when a trip to the big stores (Venture, Zaher, Corvette, Crestwood (outdoor) mall, and White Castle) was an annual event.  Kinda miss those days....
