Smells I remember and miss

the deep forest of the PNW.

These rainy days were just making me tink of that right before I read your post.

Dad smoked Lucky Strike cigarettes. Would get in his lap and smell that tobacco. Can to this day. Any leather shop.

I hated getting that concentrated smell from the bottom of empty tanks on me or my clothes. It just seemed to stick inside my nostrils for days.

My previous doctor had this soap in his bathrooms that smelled berry, berry bad, and I could not get that junk rinsed off my hands. After I got back to my office, I even went to the bathroom and repeatedly washed my hands with the good soap we had, but nothing would get that smell off, so I walked around the rest of the day with my hands smelling like I had puked on them.

Now we have GoJo liquid soap that smells and clings almost as badly. I've taken to using the Fast Orange the guys in the shop use.

Going to grade school in the fifties and the smell that I thought was glue but I'm not sure. Then there was the smell of a myriad of sandwiches during lunch. I envyed somw of those kids with baloney sandwiches... I'm sure they didn't appreciate them, after I started working sometime later, I'd go into a store and have Mrs. Jennings make me a baloney sandwich. (She was crotchety)
