Facebook is like Forrest Gump’s box of chocolates. You like to log on, but you never know what you’re going to get.
One of the more robust pages is “Old Photos from the Westport of Our Youth.” It’s heavy on pictures: old stores (The Remarkable Book Shop is a favorite), restaurants (Big Top, ditto) and beach scenes. The group has over 4,000 members. Most have great memories and time on their hands.
The other day, someone posted a photo of their old house, with a lament that it no longer looked the same.
