Makes one wanna sing, "It's a Sign of the Times" by Petula Clark!
I think there are still a few Dogs n Suds in Indiana/Ohio area. I carry their bottled root beer at my restaurant in Cary, NC
There is an Arf N Barf in Richmond, Il and also in Grayslake, Il
I just had my first one 2-3 years ago. Didn't think much of it. Next time I was in the area, I tried it again. Better memory this time. Now I like to try and stop when I'm near one.
There is a guy who worked for my buddy, that when we are on the road, heading to Iowa, we will pick him up about 20 of them.
Used to be one in Madison Wi.
They had a Laundromat next door, with a doorway between the 2.
One night, after skiing up at Cascade Mountain, we stopped for dinner. While we waited for our pizza about 4 of us went for dryer rides in the industrial dryer.
Oh to be in my late 20's again.
