A fresh edit of a shot from 2018, on a hot and hazy late summer evening at New Hampshire's version of the New Jersey shore. The light just says it all. I have wondered, ever since then, what the couple on the left were arguing about.
... To me, it's where I received a traffic citation, later that night. Nearly a half a century of perfect driving record - Shot to Hell.
This little shop is in Dong Seoul, near the train station. There is a CVS convenience store nearby, the lady that runs this small shop has a novel way to compete with the franchise. She takes photos of her customers, and sticks them up on the walls outside her shop. She is very friendly, and speaks a little English. If you see her store, please stop by and shop there.
Spain in Istanbul - a cafe near the Galata tower, with great views of the square and historic ambiance, while also providing its own spicy touch to the atmosphere.

It seems like the proprietor is really late to open his shop today. Most of the shops seem closed after the same fashion. I have to say that pseudo Fleur de lis front door is a real touch of class but the hinges might be a tad rusty. I really wanted a choco milk shake but my vitamin water will have to do 'til later, I guess. We arrived in Eldora, Colorado looking for colorful aspen, the old narrow gauge railroad grade and some old mining camp aura de lis. This Monday, we found both unlike the week ago when I caught this shot. We found plenty of green and yellow sprinkled aspen as well as a load of old structures on both visits. In 1889, Eldora's founding was listed as a shipping point for Caribou silver, five years after Crofutt published his 1885 Colorado Encyclopedia. This was originally called Eldorado, Colorado however there were post office department-caused conflicts. Apparently, the post office had issues with mail deliveries to Eldorado, Cal. instead of Eldorado, Col.
eDDie and I parked right across on Eldora Street, the through-town road, and scattered to seek these rough-and-tumble opportunities like this. I shot this lickety split. This surely caught my eye. Late in the day, we came away exhausted and loaded with pictures and memories! We are here, west of Nederland on the Peak to Peak Scenic Highway, on the road up to Eldora and other mining camps, Hessie , Grand Island(?) and up to the Fourth of July mine (probably because that was the earliest date they could commence working for the year). That's now in the Indian Peaks Wilderness Area. Eldora was claimed to be a transportation point for Caribou's silver ores. The road down from Caribou to Eldora was a beast. The road still looks like it was questionable on Google maps. Frankly, I doubt that the road was much used before or after the Switzerland Trail narrow gauge rails served both canyons. Caribou had its own access to Nederland through Cardinal before the Colorado & Northwestern rails arrived and from Cardinal through to Boulder, Colorado mills and smelters afterward.

St. Louis is an independent city and inland port in the U.S. state of Missouri. It is situated along the western bank of the Mississippi River, which marks Missouri's border with Illinois. The Missouri River merges with the Mississippi River just north of the city. These two rivers combined form the fourth longest river system in the world. The city had an estimated 2017 population of 308,626 and is the cultural and economic center of the St. Louis metropolitan area (home to nearly 3,000,000 people), which is the largest metropolitan area in Missouri, the second-largest in Illinois (after Chicago), and the 22nd-largest in the United States.
Before European settlement, the area was a regional center of Native American Mississippian culture. The city of St. Louis was founded in 1764 by French fur traders Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau, and named after Louis IX of France. In 1764, following France's defeat in the Seven Years' War, the area was ceded to Spain and retroceded back to France in 1800. In 1803, the United States acquired the territory as part of the Louisiana Purchase. During the 19th century, St. Louis became a major port on the Mississippi River; at the time of the 1870 Census it was the fourth-largest city in the country. It separated from St. Louis County in 1877, becoming an independent city and limiting its own political boundaries. In 1904, it hosted the Louisiana Purchase Exposition and the Summer Olympics.
The economy of metropolitan St. Louis relies on service, manufacturing, trade, transportation of goods, and tourism. Its metro area is home to major corporations, including Anheuser-Busch, Express Scripts, Centene, Boeing Defense, Emerson, Energizer, Panera, Enterprise, Peabody Energy, Ameren, Post Holdings, Monsanto, Edward Jones, Go Jet, Purina and Sigma-Aldrich. Nine of the ten Fortune 500 companies based in Missouri are located within the St. Louis metropolitan area. The city has also become known for its growing medical, pharmaceutical, and research presence due to institutions such as Washington University in St. Louis and Barnes-Jewish Hospital. St. Louis has two professional sports teams: the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Baseball and the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League. One of the city's iconic sights is the 630-foot (192 m) tall Gateway Arch in the downtown area.

The Grove is a business district located along Manchester Avenue (Missouri Route 100) between Kingshighway Boulevard and Vandeventer Avenue in the Forest Park Southeast (FPSE) neighborhood of St. Louis, Missouri. Formerly known as the Manchester Strip, the retail drag was first developed in the late 19th century to serve the working-class population of Forest Park Southeast. Today, the Grove is home to a variety of restaurants, bars, and clubs, including a significant number of LGBT-oriented establishments. The district is supported by a community improvement district (CID), created in 2009, which levies an additional sales tax on businesses within its boundaries to fund infrastructure and branding services.
The Grove is within walking distance of the Washington University Medical Center, Forest Park, and the Central West End and Cortex MetroLink light rail stations.

This is In-n-Out's menu board - the Holy Grail of California hamburgers.
It's the only burger I still eat after quitting beef altogether due to being grossed out by American meat quality... or lack thereof. If you want to continue eating meat here, I suggest never to watch those documentaries I saw... Anyway, for them I make an exception. It's a chain but still a family business and they strictly control their suppliers. Every item put on these burgers is fresher and better than the competitors'. Double-Double, no tomatoes, extra onions is my order here. Or the simple cheeseburger. If you're ever in California, try it. :)

-->> Controversy struck in the early 1980s on a majour part of a fib infiltrated by tOkKa as part of the "Wendy's Old Fashioned Hamburgers Restaurant Disinformation" act ..enacted uponce the retrieval from congress by digressing 3 steps backwards on a ladder head first into a ceiling fan by Kids Meal designers. The lead to massive change in strategy and marketing of Wendy's Kids' Meal boxes .. the whole concept was that the designers thought that it was actually the 1880s ..so they were took towards the distant future to show children what Wendy's Restaurants might look like in the future !!
Thus was born what tOkKa has dubbed the 'Bolly Box' .. cuz honestly he as no flippin' clue which date it really originates from. But when ya fold it out and make it a box it resembles a whimsical Wendy's restaurant !!
Wait.. am i allowed to say 'Whimsical' .. hmm that sounds dirty.. no wait..
i can use that .. yeh 'WHIMSICAL' ~~**

(See links). The Original Italian Pie
For many Italian-Americans, the words pizza and pie have often been interchangeable. At The Original Italian Pie, we’ve taken this to a new level. In our birthplace of New Orleans, we were so often named “Best Pizza” in various independent surveys, that locals created a nickname for our restaurant and began referring to us as “The Pie.”
The Original Italian Pie - Facebook
As our business grew and our menu expanded, The Pie began to be known for our variety of delicious authentic Italian dishes, in addition to our outstanding gourmet pizzas. So when you hear us say, “You gotta try The Pie”… we are The Pie! Serving gourmet pizzas and Italian specialties with a New Orleans kick since 1992.
Regional chain with a menu built on inventive pizzas plus pastas & other Italian dishes.
417 S Rampart St. New Orleans, LA. 021323.
I think Café Dulce must be the only place in Downtown L.A. where you can get a really good coffee at 9:00 pm.
And if you are also craving dessert at this time, they also have awesome pastries and cakes. : )

-->> The other side of the whimsical Wendy's Restaurant box based on what "Wendy's Old Fashioned Hamburgers" stores used to look like in what this faux-historian refered to as the "Rollickin' 20s"..where Ipods were made out of Corn husks and children had to take Sears Catalouges to the toilet and use Newspapers for blankets.. and none of the kites worked cuz string hadn't been invented yet .. and hula hoops grew on trees so it wasn't uncommon to see children rolling these down the street with sticks. Babies were born in streetcars by storks and chauffeured around by weirdoz with curly mustaches. 'Bristol-Myers Squibb' was actually Shrimp herding vessel ..and King Kong hadn't been born yet.

This small market and wine store was still open as we strolled the Rue Mouffetard and Place de la Contrescarpe at night, trying to decide where to eat.

The 22 clark bus broke down in front of a restaurant I had wanted to eat at. I said to myself I said "Self, today is the day to eat Weiner Circle". I have always wanted to go here. Its Chicago famous. There is a server named Poochy who puts on a show that is "R-Rated" when you ask for a Chocolate Milkshake. This place is notorious for serving attitude to drunk customers who have just left the bars wasted and cursing. You serve the insults and they come right back. I love America !
