Although these pictures will be uploaded to my Flickr photostream at some point in the future, I have pulled them out of the vault for this special occasion. As I promised in Sunday's mini-post, these pictures are being shown here first as a celebration of the blog's 1,000 views. I have not yet uploaded them anywhere else, even though they were taken way back in March of this year. So snow will be visible at spots. (Yeah, I've got a lot of pictures to upload....)

Whether it be because of a local building code or just because, this McDonald's located in Pittsford, NY is one that caught my attention late last year for a visit and I'm glad I decided to check out this location the first chance I had back in March. It was a regular location that was unlike any other I have ever visited, outside of the few that had a specific theme set to them.

| They even have an outdoor breezeway. Nice added touch. |
Moving on into the interior. The two photos were taken in the store's mud room area, hence the reason for all the salt on the mat.

| In and out doors. Both could be used. |

This is where things REALLY get odd at this McDonald's. You probably noticed that the store has a playground, yet a playground was not seen up front. That's because it is in the very back of the store. To get to it, you must take a narrow hallway. It is the quite odd layout for a McDonald's.

It's a shame that so many McDonald's seem to lose their identity with the new 'eyebrow' remodels, but at least this one still remains intact. Also seems that a lot of locations are dropping the playplace area, so it is also nice to see it here. Hopefully it stays around for awhile!
Very neat!! I know that feeling about being behind on photos, too - I've got one heck of a vault, haha!
ReplyDeleteHow big is your vault? Mine has almost 3,000 pictures still needed to be uploaded. :D
DeleteWell, I don't think it beats yours, that's for sure!! For me, it's primarily the issue of choosing which photos to upload - you know I do the weekly ten photos thing, and I try to space out uploads from the same place, so it takes a lot of paring down, haha!
ReplyDeleteI typically try to do 9 photos each weekday with an occasional upload on the weekend sometimes. I usually just go in order of the area.
DeleteSee, my photos aren't as travel-based. I like that concept though - showing all/most of the retail of a whole town. Pretty ambitious!
DeleteI spy a new logo too, pretty cool!!
I blame it on my OCD for wanting to get EVERYTHING in an area.
DeleteThanks for the compliment on the logo, just trying to improve the site a little at a time.
