My wife and I stopped at a little hole-in-the-wall convenience store in northern Alabama a few years ago. Very rural area, and I was dying for a Pepsi. The place reminded me of Mayberry. There were a couple of guys wearing bib overalls sitting on a bench drinking Dr. Pepper and the store was run by a little old lady and her son. They had homemade pie and cake on the counter that looked pretty good. I might have tried it if not for the abundance of flies. Anyway, they recognized us immediately as non-local and we spent half an hour or so hearing about the area and being given some tips on local attractions. Those folks were friendly as could be, and we enjoyed our short visit.
