If you take the time to stop, you learn quite a bit of local history. Previously, the region had been farmed for cotton before the boll weevil wiped out the entire crop. In 1926, Ink's father built the candy shop and his grandmother went to work cooking and selling pecan candy to motorists driving US 41 to and from Florida. He spends an average of six weeks on the road, four times a year. I enjoy checking out claims for 'oldest', 'smallest' or the such and such 'capital of the world'.
Every little town has some claim to fame.
