Highland Park Diner



Retro Chic!





Lori, Patrick and I are big fans of Triple-D aka Diners Drive-ins and Dives, so on our road trip last weekend, we visited the
Highland Park Diner for lunch






The street end of the Diner










the main counter








Another view of the street end













Time stands still






don't know if I like the retro speaker or the art-glass drop lights better










Gotta love the art deco touches!



Low Bridge Everybody down...

I was up in Phoenix the other day...








I heard the bells ringing , but there was no railroad in sight







And so I got to see this sequence.













all to let this mid sized pleasure craft through.




Evening shots last night


lines aglow... nice highlight just at sunset 10 min from the house












"Pillars of Fire"








"Dragons in the sky" can you see them there?






Longtime readers won't recognize them, but this is the same line of trees in the 'shadowline' photos from earlier this year.

Obligatory boom boom shots









































Happy 4th of July (belated) all.

Grabbed the Nikon last night and went down to the lake to shoot some fireworks... some of the folks who live down by the lake had a pretty impressive amateur show, considering that fireworks are illegal to buy here in NY.
