I liked the Yesterday and Today photos you posted of Church & McDonald, very cool. Interesting to see Silver Rod was around that long ago and located where Denny's is now. When I lived in the area, Silver Rod was a few doors down going towards E 2nd. All the best. -Joe A.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845436933807383233.post-91274452781778047892011-01-12T04:52:24.238-05:002011-01-12T04:52:24.238-05:00yeh everyone beat me to it.
