I'm betting a bunch of you guys remember this one... hint: Along I-90 in central Washington.
It’s been years since I’ve been out that way......Quincy maybe?
You're so close...
George is it? If that’s not it I’m getting a map or google lol
Ding, ding we have a winner. From Oklahoma no less.
Fubar’d thing is I can remember stuff like that but ask me a special date and you’ll get the deer in the headlights......
Anniversary, wife's birthday?
How’d you guess? lol. I have to think a split second and she doesn’t like that
My other half drops hints for me a week in advance. She never forgets my birthday though.
Yep George... Makes me smile just seeing the sign! I haven't ate there for 38 or 39 years. Time sure flies when your havin' fun
Unfortunately the restaurant is gone now, the sign still stands. The pic was from today. I remember in the 70's the sign was lit up with neon. Used to see a lot of P.I.E and Garrett trucks there.
I was only in there a couple of times. Always stopped at the Cottage across from Zack or Mabel's next to Carls in Eburg. Nice to see the signs Beyond passin' through on the slab I have spent many happy hours in gorge listening to Tom Petty, Journey and Crosby Stills and Nash to name a few! Mr. Zucker you post the most interesting stuff We sure have seen a lot of the same real estate!
Lived in George for a few months about 45 yrs ago. Mike
Working on I-90?
Brings back some good memories!
The Martha Inn-ptomaine capital of the Columbia Basin. In the latter days of the Martha the flies chipped in to by a new screen for the back door. Truck Shop
How many of you remember the plastic monster park {Thunderbeast Park} on 97 in Ore. Truck Shop
Honestly, 10 -12 years back I had some pretty good meals there. The lounge had a 16 oz. bar steak that was really good, came with butter sautéed veggies the were pretty good too.
Gees that been gone for 30+ years ,think its a truck chrome shop now or it was the last time I was by there. Bob
Did the 53/ 97 shuffle down to Weed and back on 5 to avoid the Medford Ashland whoop dee do's when I had to go that way... I am sorry to say that I have somehow lost Thunderbeast park from my memory bank. (She say's scratching her head.)
North of Chiloquin on 97 after you pulled Collier park hill it was on the West side of the road , it had a 15 foot tall armadillo looking statue in front of it which may still be there. Its been closed 40 years? Bob
Heres another from old US 10. Old Texaco station just out of Sprague Wa. Used to have all the signs on it.
I remember that one. Truck Shop
Yup. The old road to Ritzville.
Missed that one completely. Don't think I ever saw it.
Got out today and shot a few more pics from old US 10, this one is heading east from the bank of the Columbia river.
A few more from that area.
I have heard that called Frenchman's Coulee.
Yep, that's what it is. Funny story: 15 years ago I was at the top of the little waterfall on the north side of the coulee and my crazy little heeler took off after a rabbit and ran all the way to the shelf midway down. She finally came back up and gave me that "What?" look.
I used to run by there hauling wood chips up 97, then down 58 to Springfield. Took the family over to see that roadside attraction about 20 years ago. I think it closed down shortly thereafter.
