    Pretty neat find............

    It's been 2 1/2 years since I lost Alecia and I'm still going through things. It's a tough go. But anyway, I came across these items this morning. Alecia worked in the food service industry most of her life. These are from when she was still in Detroit before moving to Texas. A name tag, money clip, a tie tack, pair of earrings and what looks like an anniversary pin from when she worked at a Big Boy restaurant. I thought they are pretty cool.

            Big boy is the original Big Mac! My mom loved that place as a kid! I saw a plastic big boy at an antique shop once I almost bought it for her to stick in the yard!

              Kip's had the greatest ice cream sundae's in the world. Back in the sixties we had one at the corner of Lemmon Ave and Inwood.

                    There was a Big Boy in Houston back in the early sixty's (can't remember the address) . Back when I was going to UofH. Ate there many times. Great memories.

                      I ate there many times. And a few as a young adult.

                      Randy, thanks for sharing. It brought back some memories here.

                        It would have to be extremely vintage because it has been a really loooooonnnnnggggg time.

                          Yep grew up in MI, and loved the BB. They are very similar / almost identical / to Jim's down here.

                              The memories are what is making it take so long to go through things.
