It’s hot. An ice-cold slice of watermelon sounds great. The above photo is one of my all-time favorites, from the 2016 Flashback Dallas post “‘Melons On Ice’ — 1890s.” Enjoy the flashback Flashback!

Paula: I tried to add an additional comment to my 2015 comment re the 1900 Dallas Morning News piece “lively street scene” and seemingly could not get the comment to be accepted. I did I do something wrong or what? Bob

Hmm. I don’t think I have the ability to block comments. Maybe it’s just some weird glitch. This comment made it!
