Merriam KS is southwest suburban Kansas City MO. This IHOP used to have the cavernous vaulted ceilings, of course, but like many IHOPS, utilities costs forced the installation of a flat ceiling.
Also, its kitchen hood has lost the copper scallops that mark a really old IHOP. The sign has lost it's spindles and its tapered light fixture, and the building has had the little rafters cut off, which would have extended below the roof line. All were features of the "Swiss Chalet" charm of yesteryear. Also, the end door, an emergency exit, once would have had a window. All windows would have had the criss-cross diamond shaped dividers.
UPDATE Feb 2022: Despite being very busy, particularly late at night, and requiring a security guard/off-duty cop, this ceased operations as an IHOP in about 2015, and has been operating under locally owned family chain, Pegah's.
Wooden A-frame racks or hjells with heads of skrei-codfish tied together while hanging air drying to become stockfish-tractor wheel treads on the ground. Laukvik-Austvagoya-Lofoten-Nordland-Norway.
Been playing around with some new LEGO A-frame plates. Cool stuff! See the whole write-up at www.dagsbricks.com/2014/01/lego-techniques-frames.html
I took this early in the morning. It must have been 5:50something. I am surprised at how sharp it came out. Especially since it was hand held, and with an iso of 200. I love my Yashica and how lovely its indoor and night photos come out. I should get more of these cameras!
In an abandoned A Frame home in the desert. The theives have been busy. The horizontal metal used to go all the way to the floor, but apparently they couldn't reach any higher to remove the bolts. This place appeared to be lived-in a few years ago.
I found several rolls of expired film from 1999 in a drawer and decided to do a little playing with one of my old film cameras. The images came out grainy, a bit foggy, and quite dusty -- just like I like 'em.
The Barony A Frame is a preserved headgear in East Ayrshire, Scotland, located west of Auchinleck. It was built in 1954 as part of the modernisation of the Barony Colliery, which had been opened in 1907.
The colliery closed in 1989, and in 1990 the winding engine houses, generating station and water-treatment works, as well as the A frame, were given listed building status, as category B listed structures.
It is the last remaining example of its type in Britain, and was restored in 2007 by the Barony A Frame Trust. Over £1 million was spent refurbishing the structure, including funding from Historic Scotland and the Heritage Lottery Fund. The A-frame was re-opened by Prince Charles, the Duke of Rothesay in January 2008.

Designed and built by the owners Carlos Zubieta and Tatiana Barhar in 2005. The home is approximately 2,000 square feet with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a large open mezzanine that overlooks the dining room. 20’-0” high ceilings and surrounding walls of glass brings the southern sky and large mature trees right into the home.
Carlos Zubieta and daughter Sasha under the A-frame treehouse, constructed last summer. "When she and her friend set up a lemonade stand and had a garage sale to raise money to build a tree house, I had to take it seriously," Zubieta said. "We used all the scrap lumber saved from building the home and with the $80 collected from the lemonade and garage sale we bought all the hardware and paneling."
Continuing my Southern Arizona Adventure 2024 with a stop in Madera Canyon. This is stage 2 of 9. Only a little hiking, mostly sight seeing. This is a place I plan on revisiting, but as an overnight camping trip. I have to change from my normal hiking style to a birding style to appreciate this place.
We offer two A-Frame cabins and two single story cabins for rustic style lodging. Children are permitted to stay in the single story cabins 3 and 4. BBQ sets are provided for all cabins. Wood-stove heating is provided in Cabins 3 and 4. Cabins 3 and 4 are on the right across the street from the Gift Store with plenty of parking.
Haiku thoughts
Beneath aged oaks,
Whispers of the canyon breathe,
Nature's quiet song.

A very odd looking Triangle shaped house. In Alpine areas houses are built with sloped roofs so that the snow does not build up, however no snow ever falls on Great Barrier Island
Gardena, CA; an incredibly rare remaining a-frame location -- the only other one I know of is in Ventura.
