Diners, Drive-ins and Dives


Last week I took a little trip with the "gang" of some wives to a restaraunt called The Beacon featured on the show Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Left to right Jessica, me, McKenzie and Becca. 


When you walk in, there is a paper menu on the wall and you walk up to this man who calls out your order. The fun part about this is, whatever he says is totally in audible; you can't understand a thing. 
He's been working here for 52 years and loves it. He is blind and very good at his job. We didn't know what to order. He asked us what we liked and then ordered the burger we wanted. 
Just like the cafeteria you grab a tray and move down the line. After we mad our orders we tried to figure out exactly what it was we ordered. 


The experience was really fun, and the place was totally a dive. It was like it had been added on to several times because it was like a maze to get around. Another fun note is for memorial day they put out a flag using a crane. Yes the flag was hanging from the crane.
