The sign also says "Please Pay Cashier".....DUH! I wonder if the order to his left belongs to the photographer, Frank Bauman?

I feel like grabbing the toast.

I tasted buttermilk once and spit it out,

But, some people LOVE it.

I used to see stands along the highway advertising " ICE COLD BUTTERMILK "

Roy Roger's wife named her horse "BUTTERMILK", asI recall.

My father used to love it. We would buy half gallons of it for him. I could never get past the smell.

"Mamie and Dwight Eisenhower celebrate their 39th wedding anniversary on July 1, 1955". They're probably headed to the Diner for breakfast!

They may have been more of a hotdogs and ice cream couple.

This diner was open when I was a kid. It's in my hometown and just recently went up for sale.

I was looking through the vintage diner posts thought I'd give you an update on the Caboose.
It opened in July as Johnny Bs .
Serving tacos, burritos and the like...
Apparently it's fashioned after a good truck, there's no seating just counters to stand at...
I don't care for Mexican so I haven't been,my son says it's kind of pricey.
Johnny B is apparently one of the Caputos of the painting family. The daughter is the current owner.
The former owner,whose name escapes me at the moment passed in Chase Nursing Home a few years back.
Thought you might enjoy an update,be well,
Pat
