Poor teens out of school but learning! Looks like a great tour- Wish I had more time for tours...

That's a nice thought. <br /><br />Opening a movie theater in the height of the Depression was rather daring. Don't you love people who take risks, like that? <br /><br />I'm glad your visit to both the boardwalk and the Fox Theater.<br /><br />Stay cool:~)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15995684156785464334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-32524900215306177402012-07-10T11:42:09.060-04:002012-07-10T11:42:09.060-04:00G -

Apparently that's a tradition in theaters to have a light like that. But there is a man who lives in an apartment in the theater - they refer to him as the "phantom" - he always knows everything happening in the theater.<br /><br />We had a delicious lunch at Mary Mac's Tearoom - great Southern cooking. No one went home hungry. <br /><br />FB -<br /><br />It put me in mind of trying to take my nieces to museums - oh, the agony!<br /><br />Mama Zen -<br /><br />I know - cool, huh?Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-36282247801803902352012-07-09T09:28:51.849-04:002012-07-09T09:28:51.849-04:00I love the ghost light story!I love the ghost light story!Maude Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669688074743095866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-34948981576869853362012-07-09T07:21:32.404-04:002012-07-09T07:21:32.404-04:00Teenagers don't know what they're missing,...Teenagers don't know what they're missing, sometimes.
