Cheers was a good location for me- close to home!

Anyone recall the Iron Horse Tavern?
Good bands there too including the Good Rats.....and of course, not that far from the Pioneer Diner.

I was just thinking about Marydale yesterday. I went there for three summers in the early sixties. Believe it was off Rte 110 on Duryea Rd. Still remember how we lined up for the buses at the end of the day and got our "bug juice" , which was lemondae and a cookie while we waited to board. Good memories.
