THE BEANERY
The Beanery is definitely a LHS legend. Though it has been many years since it was a central part of the Lincoln culture (for some of the class anyway), is still conjures up pleasant and even humorous memories of all kinds. One of our classmates has shared one here:
“The Beanery was on 44th a half block across the street and due east of the school. There are several good memories from there including the wonderful chocolate sundaes with chocolate ice cream and trying to shoot the crushed paper cones through a hold in the window over the door. I won't mention the practice of setting the crunched ping-pong balls afire and inadvertently setting the curtains afire. No danger though......they were plastic and just melted.”
There is a large interest is keeping the legend going. Does anyone have pictures of the Beanery (either inside or outside)? We’d like to have them for our Reunion bulletin board displays.
Please send them to:
