Thanks, Frank. Yes, it was the missing letters that drew my attention to the current state of the diner. The feeling of sadness that generated in turn led me to notice the other run-down diner in the area (The Whitehouse Diner) and to decide that I should do a series of photos featuring these places and other active and abandoned diners in the area. If and when the economy recovers, these places may disappear, and be replaced by strip malls.
