Bert's Camera & Records downtown and Delmont Village. My dad was the manager.



He had the shoe store downtown too didn't he?

I remember getting an Icee and a BBQ beef sandwich for fifty cents at Pack a Sack.

The Wendy's on the north side of campus. RIP.


All the old stuff on the north side of campus on Chimes and State:

The McDonalds with the purple and gold seats on State St. I liked the purple and gold seats better than McDonalds.

Murphy's. IHOP. Baskin Robbins. Round the Corner. A&P grocery. Silver Moon Cafe.


Just to name a few.

Maybe I'm misremembering, I thought it was by that Chase bank.


Wendy's was next to Chase.

Louie's left their old location and remodeled the Wendy's.
