Thanks Jack! I'm glad you are a reader of my blog. Clay Vice and Judi Cole are the only others I am aware that visit it, although now 50-100 a day probably hit upon the blog. Clay gave it a big boost in readership a couple of years ago and now it is over 11,000 hits as the counter shows. I have had to reset the counter a few times with conservative estimates.
At any rate, I inquired about both downtown Portsmouth businesses. I never entered either while in HS, but used to lunch with Jeanie and her friend, Ce (Cecilia), at the Cameo later when she was convinced I was just infatuated with her. That was 61 years ago and we will be married 59 years next month. Infatuation left me in such a hypnotized state with my girl's beauty. She is only more beautiful today to me.

Saw some inquires about both businesses, I think , in your blog. Both places were important fixtures in the life and times of guys, of my age and the same can be said about the Cameo,for girls.Apple pie ala mode at the caneo and the bar b que sandwiches at the stag were the best I have eaten to date. Today. my motor scooter had a flat tire and I was forced to walk about 200 yards and I was completely exhausted.. I offer this little tidbit as a prelude to a brief narrative. One evening at the Cameo I was favored with the opportunity to sit with two very attractive young ladies a year younger than I, One, who shall remain nameless,was of especial interest. Long,lithe, lovely in every respect,-- including intelligence, Everybody rode buses then except on an occasional weekend so she suggested we walk home. We walked from the Cameo to her house on N.Hill Road. Talked awhile, only talked, during which time she indicated that she would not be offended if I continued to be interested in her..The buses had stopped running by this time, so I walked from her house to where I lived on Mabert Rd.Couldn't have managed that on the bus anyway. Today 200 yards, wore me out. That night 5?6?7? miles made me all the more elated........ That was one thing the Cameo could do for you.
