Re: Old Street Scenes

Glenn, I don't know how you do it. I spent about 3 hours searching scanning cropping uploading to net about 45 pics. I'm beat.

East Marginal Way at the southwest end of Seattle's Boeing Field. Left sign for Renton, center sign for Tukwila and Kent and the right sign for US 99 south to Tacoma. This intersection is basically still the same today. This photo is pre-interstate freeway, which was built on the east side of Boeing Field.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Cool picture, Rita....looks like posing with cars runs in your family https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: Old Street Scenes

??? The Incline ,Chattanooga Tennessee ???

Re: Old Street Scenes

Looks like the Incline plane in Johnstown, PA!!!! Am I correct????

Re: Old Street Scenes

You are correct. Bridge at the bottom is a give away.

The only girl who doesn't look happy is the Mercedes girl. I wonder why https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif
Could it be that the owner bought it to replace something else that he was missing???? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Re: Old Street Scenes

That picture almost looks like it should be "an animation" in the movie "Cars" https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

Re: Old Street Scenes

For some of the Chicago folks. It is only an attachment,so if someone wants to post a full-size please do. I found a cd full of stuff that I got off of the net years ago, and I have personal pictures I need to scan, if I can get my computer to recognize my scanner.

Or if anyone is interested (since I am computer illiterate), I can forward quite a few photos to post on this board. I tried to post a few in attachments, but they were too large.

As I recall there was an Algiers section of New Orleans when we were there to visit my aunt/uncle 50 years ago http://www.v8buick.com/images/smilies/kopfpatsch.gif. We also went across the river to Gretna for their Mardi Gras celebration cause it was a lot less crowded and more laid back.

This is not the photo I wanted, I had an older photo of this old place on Pulaski (then and now)....I searched on how to post a photo w/o an attachment and did find something on how to do it but still have questions.....so if someone can send me an excellent step by step process, I will post some old ones.

LOL! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif Thanks Bill!

I think I may have inherited my love of cars from my mom. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif
Here she is as a little girl. She's the one pre-occupied trying to see what kind of car is coming down the street while her siblings are all looking at the camera. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

BTW...Her dad was an Engineer at Chrysler.

Looking thru these pictures makes my heart ache for that simpler time. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

Re: Old Street Scenes

O.K. Seattle Sam sent me a link to Xplantdad's tutorial on how to post pictures. I really do appreciate that.I'm going to collect everything of interest in a smaller folder...it seems dog427435 and I have found alot of the same stuff, so I am going to weed those out. Here is one for now. Let me know if this is too big or too small. I will try to practice more once I get the pictures into a smaller folder.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Hey...I worked at a Sambo's for 4 years. we were broke but we ate well...

Re: Old Street Scenes

When I was a kid my mom and dad took me to Sambo's. I still remember the menu with little black Sambo and that lion. Had the pancakes. Not a politically correct restaurant these days. Then again some of the photos here one could make the same statement. The picture came out great by the way.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Pic size looks great! I ate at Sambo's as well...didn't they have "tiger milk" and "tiger butter", too? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Re: Old Street Scenes

Tiger Butter. We would put about 10lbs of 1 lb sticks of butter in a big mixer, add crushed ice and whip it into the lightweight butter that we would scoop with a little ice cream scoops to put on the pancakes.

Re: Old Street Scenes

Years ago, all the Sambo's here in Maryland turned into Dennys.

We did the same thing in the kitchen at Marshall Fields, and added maple syrup to the mix. Rolled the pancakes and filled 'em w/the maple butter like cannoli.

That's still there and is now a Denny's, I think. Lower Boradway in Oakland, CA near Jack London Square.
