It continues to shape the American psyche. Pfizer provided medicines to the Union armies, and their business exploded. 140 years later, we have Viagra, and Lipitor. The Civil War created a nation hooked on prescription and OTC drugs. Ever notice that sports rivalries based on geography are East vs. West and not North vs. South?

I want to live vicariously through your memories. My "A" is Ayersville, Ohio. A very small village mostly built around a rural school. My 90-year old aunt lives across from the school and has the most enormous "yard" ever. I always enjoyed going there and running around outside or going around the school on a walk. I learned a lot about wildlife and bird watching out in Ayersiville. Came looking for “B” to see where you were going to take me today. I want to live vicariously through your memories.
