...And order the blackberry pie. The coffee is strong and endless, and the whole damned family is working like champs... The place had just opened two days before we got there. John Boy's, off rt.23 in Alpena, Michigan. The magic stuff of road-trips.

Great shot! And what is amazing is that you cannot even see the camera in the reflection.. good pic for a bar or diner!

WomanNchns: in the original hi-res, you could just about make out the bodies (one of 'em hiding behind camera) in the reflection, at a table way in the back -- I was there with a small group, & the place was empty. Brand new restaurant; they were still debating where to put the chalk-board for the daily specials...

I really like this one. Nice and moody and at the same time so inviting. Your stream is an inspiration and I envy your wit. Very nice work here.

Muchos thankies! Road-trips definitely yield great scenes to shoot...too bad it's an extravagant expense these days...

This is the top photo in the "A most memorable blackberry pie" category. It also reminds me of the paintings that Tobin Sprout does with the great refelections.

Since you were going back for another slice, I thought I would too!

We're featuring this (appropriately) on Michigan Diners & Hometown Favorites on Absolute Michigan.
