I know there's nothing terribly noirish about the Rose Parade, but I thought I'd share a few of my grandparents photos from 1963 & 1964 anyway. It's an interesting look as the past, as many of these would not be allowed in today's floats.

Europe and back east have buildings going back hundreds of years , yet we on the California west coast seem to tearthings down within 50 -100 years on a rotating basis I would love to see a gas station or any old historic buildings be given incentives to stay in business and keep the older businesses rather than tearing them down. Tax breaks, etc if you take a station like this and retrofit modern technology masked by time period pieces. New gas pump mechanics inside of old pumps so the "look" was still there I know I am dreaming, but isnt that what we all do here LOL Would be nice to start saving older buildings some how and making it a money maker to keep them rather than tear them down |
