Russell's Corner has been at Jarves Street x Route 6A time out of mind, in Sandwich. Here's a really old picture when it was the original meat market & grocery store. Judging by the cars I'd say this was taken in the 50s or early 60s.
Naturally, I've been threatening to take Russell's picture under the sign ever since I moved back. I finally had both him and my camera in the car one day and as we were traveling down 6A, the following conversation occurred:
Me: Hey! I just realized! I wanna take that pic of you at Russell's Corner!
Him: No.
Me: Yes.
Him: HELL no.
Me: Yes. Oh this is soooo happening
*pulling into the parking lot*
Me: This is gonna be so great! Come on.
Him: .......
*walking to the corner*
Me: Now stand right there and smile!
Him: .......
Me: *laughing*
Me: Ok now we have to get the pic of you making the Cape Cod with your arm with that other sign around the corner.
Him: *sigh*
Me: Now do the Cape Cod.....NO! That's Walk Like an Egyptian. Do the Cape Cod!
Him: "It's a good thing I love you so much"
Needless to say he was like....
