Keep your athletes safe while putting your sponsors or team branding close to the action with Softline™ A-Frames, a padded A-Frame by AMI Graphics.
If it were not for the chimney and patio, it might not appear from here there is a dwelling under the snow. Hooray for A-frames.
It might seem strange to lament the loss of a McDonald’s especially by somebody such as me that always advocates going to mom-and-pop places instead of the big chains. However, this was a pretty special McDonald’s even though it was not the original tenant of this building.
The A-frame construction fit in perfectly with the Alpine architecture style seen throughout the San Bernardino Mountain Communities. In addition, this location was always very well-run.
Sadly, the investment company that holds almost all of the commercial property in both Blue Jay and Lake Arrowhead has decided the income it made from this McDonald’s as well as the bicycle store next door was not enough. Sometime after October 4, 2019 and the last Big Mac leaves the grill, this building will be torn down and replaced with a small box-style strip mall.
This view shows the birch trees on the side lawn. One has to wonder if these as well as the large evergreens will be spared when the strip mall is built.
ADDENDUM: Due to various circumstances, the plans were changed and this building was not torn down. Beginning in the autumn of 2020, it became Blue Jay Burgers. Sadly, the food is so terrible it makes one wish it was still McDonald's.
This is all that's left of the Barony Colliery a coal mine of yesteryear. My Dad was a miner here for many years.

The Barony A Frame Trust was set up in 1997 as a community led charitable Trust specifically to save and restore the iconic A Frame at the former Barony Colliery in Auchinleck, East Ayrshire.
Following the decision by Scottish Coal to close the pit, all of the mine buildings were demolished leaving the A Frame structure isolated in a derelict landscape. However, no one had banked on the depth of feeling for the former Barony Colliery and its unique A Frame. The community rallied around the mission to save the A Frame from demolition. and create a meaningful and sustainable monument to mining and mining communities.
The structure was in need of a major face-lift so, with assistance from East Ayrshire Council, the Trust set about raising £1.3m to carry out the work. Fundraising took far longer than was initially anticipated but by 2007 the remedial work to the A Frame was complete along with major landscaping and improvement works to the surrounding site. The end result is a sustainable, meaningful monument to the mining industry and the communities who worked in it.
This building started life as an IHOP back in the 70's. I remember eating there once when I was a kid, chocolate chip pancakes smothered in syrup...
