What ever happened to.....?

I'm sitting here in Morganton, NC, at a little cafe called Pat's Snack Bar. It's a cute little diner serving the basics. There's a bar right as you walk in and tables going back to the Deserts First which shares the space. To most people, it looks like a hole in the wall I'm sure. But it's a hometown place that makes you feel welcome! And this is the best BLT I've had in a while!
I came in here because it was cold and nothing opens until 11 am. I'm inarch of post cards. Sorry to tell you all but they aren't as popular as they use to be. Which got me where I am.
What happen to postcards and places like Pat's Snack Bar? Obviously, I'm sitting here so there are still a few around. And so are post cards. But they aren't as popular or well known. No one is wondering if there is a small hole in the wall place they can garb a really good cup of coffee and meet some sweet people. And yes they are on birth the coffee and the people!
And why can't I find a postcard? Seriously they are the cheapest thing you could sell to sir if your business or town. And this town has a lot of historical places that would make gorgeous post cards!
It seems people have forgotten the little things. And I'm afraid the new generations never even knew them.
I suppose I'll close with this... If your in Morganton, go to Pat's Snack Bar and grab a cup of coffee and a BLT. You won't regret it. And tell me if you find any postcards!!!
