It’s good to continue these July visits, so here’s a welcome to Fare Exchange.

On Independence Day, Freda Webb had a delicious memory from her family’s years in Chattanooga.

She wrote, “As I sit listening to the symphony on TV before fireworks, I cannot help but remember the years we enjoyed being in Coolidge Park with family for the Fourth of July. We raised a son and daughter through college in Chattanooga and then decided to move to the mountains.

“We especially enjoyed the lemonade sold at a stand on the Fourth. The News-Free Press published the recipe for that lemonade, but I could not find it online. It may have been 20 years ago even. I would appreciate your help finding that recipe.”

And we would appreciate your help, dear reader.
