Has been modified a bit (note the ugly vinyl windows), but still more or less intact. Inappropriate dormer windows and an ugly sign have also been added to the A-frame portion of the building so I shot it at an angle that hides them. I love that roofline.

Photo taken with my grandpa's Kodak Duaflex II camera and a roll of Kodacolor-X film that expired in December 1968 that I bought on Ebay. Film processed by Film Rescue International.

its kind of an irresistible subject

Here's Layla on one of her favorite obstacles, the A-Frame. She looks like she's having fun in this still photo, but I'll have to post the video of the run sometime ... sulky, sulky, sulky. She was practically walking for most of the run.

 

This was at the big Colorado Kennel Club show back in February -- the first time we've run FAST (the newest AKC agility game), the first time we've entered a 3-ring trial, and the first time we've run agility in a big coliseum with a huge audience. It so happened that the schedule was set up so that all 3 of our runs conflicted, so we ran jumpers, ran over to the FAST ring, waited a couple of dogs, did our FAST run, then went over to the standard ring, waited for several dogs, then did our standard run (this picture is from that last run).

 

Okay, on second thought Layla was probably pretty darn tired by this time.

 

To think that I'd contemplated entering Layla and Pip in obedience and rally, too (though obedience entries were so paltry that we'd probably have been done before we even got to do any of our agility runs ...)

Photo from an early 1970s township publication showing the Marlton NJ Acme Market and some of the neighboring shopping center. On the other side of Acme was Sears Catalog Store. If you look closely at the entrance to the Acme, you can see the open doorway which had an air curtain so the door could be kept open.

My wife, Sammy has a secluded place in our garden where she goes every morning for her quiet time and her cuppa coffee, and this is her view from that spot. Often, even when it rains, she'll put on her rain gear and settle back under the trees to enjoy the storm.

 

I built that A-frame cabin in the 1970s, and with two squabbling boys in our small house, it saved our sanity and allowed us to stay put and not have to move to a bigger house. It doesn't have any electricity or plumbing, but they ran an extension chord out there, and one or the other of them and sometimes both moved in, and our life, for the most part, became quiet and peaceful once again.

The A FRAME pit head structure is the only surviving structure of the Barony colliery which once employed over 1,000 men and the only surviving example of this Germanic form of pit head gear in the country.

Whataburger

This started out as the classic Burger Chef building. It was later converted to a more modern Burger Chef design, which was essentially this building without the pseudo A-frame. The A-frame was an add-on for the Whataburger conversion. Tulsa, OK

 

UPDATE: Severely damaged by tornado on August 6, 2017 and demolished on August 15, 2017. Aerial footage of the damaged building clearly showed that the A-frame was simply a decorative add-on. It gave the Burger Chef building a more traditional Whataburger appearance.

 

UPDATE, April 23, 2019: KOTV news reported that site preparation has started for construction of the replacement Whataburger building. The report also stated that Whataburger has confirmed that the new building's construction has started. A projected opening date has not yet been announced.

 

UPDATE: The replacement Whataburger opened on this site at 3:00 PM on July 29, 2019. At the time of opening, it became the largest Whataburger in Oklahoma.

The Ranch Restaurant was built in the 1950s by the same gentleman who built the neighboring Ranch Motel. We had a fantastic piece of blackberry pie on this visit:-)
