Thanks again Tanner, I'm really getting depressed and feeling my age today.  :(

I can't believe that the Brown's Chicken places are gone.

Whatever happened to Cindy Quik, anyways?  When I was a little boy, she used to choreograph the school plays that I was forced to participate in at St Mary of Czestochowa. ;D

Then she moved her space to Laramie Ave.  Maybe we should google her.  LOL!!

Not Cock Robin.  It was something else.

Just the opposite of places that aren't there anymore.
I think Henry's Hot Dog Stand has been on Ogden and Austin for over 50 years?
They still taste the same, and I always loved the fries.   Umm- wish I lived closer,
Henry's would be my lunch today.

I started going there when Bunyon's shut down.

I was a Bunyon's man for thirty years...and even worked there one Summer back in 1988.

When they closed, it broke my heart.  Lots of good memories with that place.

Bonster

Where was Bunyon's?  And why did it shut down?
