Shorpy.com - The 100 Year Old Photo Blog

Was just surfin' a few blogs this morning and came across this gem. It is Shorpy.com - The 100 Year Old Photo Blog. Take a peek into history with this blog dedicated to old photographs. Each photo seems to tell a story of the things that made this country great. However you interpret history or whether or not you agree with it, this blog opens the door to a different America.

483 pages to date of historic 100 year old photos. (actually some of the photos aren't quite 100 years old, but still very very good)

Support Your Local Hell's Angels Defense Fund

Every year I attend the Little Sturgis motorcycle rally in Sturgis Kentucky. ( July 17-20, 2008) Not to be confused with the other Sturgis rally........ this one is kind of small..... only about 15,000 people having a great time in the hot humid Kentucky summer heat. I thought this was pretty interesting........ Hell's Angels have come a long way since the movie persona of the late 50's and early 60's.

Old Memphis Drive In

While going to Memphis TN we passed this structure......... looks like what is left of an old drive in hamburger place........ Possibly an old A&W ??????? Brings back memories. I wonder how many people stopped here while traveling years ago, before the Interstate system was completed. This is on TN Hwy 51 which runs between I40 and I55 north to south.
