Most of those are of the area where I grew up. The first one is literally round the corner from where my parents lived when I was born, and until I was about 9. The next one down is a place I worked (very briefly).

Crazy, the "Nationwide" insurance storefront is using the very same logo that the company uses today. Hah. If something is not broken, do not dare ever fix it.



Oh, btw, dogs love trucks.

Not sure what this one is a couple cars over from that blue Bug in the first pic, but it looks far more modern than any of the others shown.
