[CBQ] Re: Red Owl truck in the new Zephyr

["Thomas Johnson (46/M)" <t.m.j@comcast.net>]

Hi, I have not seen the Zephyr yet but the Red Owl name is very 
familiar to me. We had a grocery store in my hometown by the name 
and I believe it was part of a chain of them. I grew up in a suburb 
of St Paul, MN and seem to recallthat there used to be several 
stores around town.
