Red, is that still open? I used to go there when I was little, when my preschool took field trips to Packard Park! Ahhh, memories...last time I was in town, that area of the city was "Mama's Family" territory...

Honestly I have no idea. I'm not in that part of town very often (in fact, I'm not even in the Fort very often anymore), but BlueChair and I were getting a kick out of the signs as we drove around when he was in town....I'd forgotten just how ridiculous some of them were so we decided to take a picture.

So I've never been - how was "Big Guy's"? :)

Lights

They have an old downtown shopping district that is pretty much defunct. However, much of the old and massive neon signs still exist. It must have really been something to see back in the 40s and 50s...

I like old stuff. There's a market for old neon signs...

HAHAHAHA

That's hillarious. It goes to show you what they can get away with in places where nobody knows French.

That place in the Fort used to sell sno-cones and hot dogs. That's all I remember...but there was another place in the same neighborhood called Snow White's Diner. THAT place was awesome...an authentic greasy spoon. Did you take BlueChair downtown and show him Cindy's Diner, that metal box of a restaurant in a parking lot?

No actually I didn't think about that....is that place still there? I've never actually been inside, but I remember driving by it when I was little and thinking it looked like a doll's house.

The other thing I've yet to show him is the old fashioned sunbeam bread sign. The kitschiness of that thing never ceased to amuse me.

There was a movie made about the Sunbeam sign, called "The Endless Bread". Never saw it, but it was shown in my high school because one of the people who wrote it went to my school. And, my dad worked there for years. Interesting place...

High class fish balls

(...eventually, after the bombs fell, we ate the fish balls, silently and without a snicker).
