RYAN BASEBALL TEAM, LOUDOUN COUNTY, VIRGINIA - c1932


Long ago, my Uncle Roger and Aunt Helen Croson owned a general store, bar, and gas station on route 50 (John Mosby Highway) in Chantilly, Virginia. The store was known as Croson's. It is now owned by someone else but they kept the same name. My aunt and uncle are long gone but I have fond memories of that place. My Aunt Helen would let me have a Yoo-Hoo chocolate drink from the big cooler. I remember the shuffleboard table and my father drinking a beer at the bar while eating a pickled pig's foot.
