I loved the 1960s-style lights, and I heard they were going to take them down, so I HAD to have this photo!

Iceland. Greenland. Antartica. Vietnam. Cambodia. Burma!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I met a wonderful man who is in the Airline business.........travel travel travel.............if I wanted to see him I had to go too.
Lots of lonely times when I couldn't go!
But we had millions of 'free' mile tickets, which was great!
When we lived in the US, we went everywhere.....by car and plane.......saw a lot of the US........horrified that the towns were all empty and falling down and then these hugs suburbs spreading for miles!
My daughter was living near Dayton has now moved to Milwaukee, so we go over a reasonable amount.

I miss this style of lights. I feel like I can hear those gas pumps going "Ding!... Ding!... Ding!" too. Gas pumps should ding again.

At night it must be very interesting to see these lights.
You must go back another time and take a night shot.

That was what I was thinking when I saw it. It was like Route 66 in my hometown!
