With the next day being the 4th of July, business is "booming" at the Sky King fireworks store just off US Rt 1 in Morrisville, PA as Conrail Local YPMO-R1 shoves a cut of loaded lumber into the Toll Brothers siding shortly after a nasty thunderstorm passed through the area.
It's been a while since I haven't ventured over to Morrisville for the Staley local, so here is MO-R1 headed off for Staley after working Toll Brothers, passing the most photographed Dairy Queen in the tristate area. The CSX geep is a former B&O unit.
Site of the first Dairy Queen on N. Chicago St. in Joliet, Illinois, USA, with gouache sketch overlaid on storefront as it appeared in the 1940's. I took the liberty of dabbing a few red stools inside, even though you had to take your ice cream to go back then.

Though many small walk-up-only Dairy Queens remain, relatively few of them sport the "broken-gable" roofline seen for decades on larger DQs.

Conemaugh and Blacklick Railroad engine 51 heads to its first stop in Johnstown, PA at the crack of dawn as it is seen here on the other side of the river passing a city favorite, Dairy Queen.
Dairy Queen located at 1000 East 6th St. in Okmulgee,OK. Note this location which opened for business on March 14th 1965 was the third DQ location to be constructed with a barn-like exterior. The barn shaped buildings which the company refered to as the "Country Fresh Look" would soon be a standard building design for Dairy Queen stores across the Country. Note the dining room at this location was added in June 1972. Following the addition of the dining room the "Little Miss" mascot which sat atop the cupola of the barn was removed. Aside from the removal of "Little Miss" and the addition of a drive thru the exterior of the building has received only minor alterations since 1972.
I love hilarious awkward about to kiss photos.

Former Dairy Queen located at 2930 Main St. in Parsons,KS. The building is currently occupied by an indepdently owned restaurant operating under the name Granny B's Family Diner.
Note Dairy Queen opened this location on August 31st 1974.
Seeing the unusual or things out of context will attract the eye of the photographer.
When I saw this van full of nuns enter Dairy Queen, bubbling with excitement as they approached the counter, I knew I wanted to get a candid photo of the moment.
It was wonderful to see the Sisters allowing themselves such an ordinary worldly treat.

Classic walk-up DQ on the southeast side of Shelbyville. I've never run across a DQ sign like this one.

Last night we had our last dairy queens until February 2008. Our DQ shuts down for the winter, sending young workers scurrying for new jobs. We had the usual, a small chocolate and a child-size crunch.
