Bob's Big Boy

f8.0, 1/125, ISO 100, focal lenght 35mm, handheld, 3:55 p.m.

In October, 2009, Bob’s Big Boy opened on the site of the old Johnie’s (nee Harvey’s) Broiler in Downey. The Johnie’s of the 60s and 70s was a landmark, but the Johnie’s of the 90s was just sad. But still, I was sorry to see it turned into a used car lot, and sorrier still to see it being torn down. But then a group of concerned citizens stepped in, and now Johnie’s has been reborn as Bob’s. Welcome back Harvey-Johnie-Bob!
