Signs, Signs & A Good Fence Somewhere in Old Virginny

click on photos to enlarge
Williamson Road . Roanoke

I admit it, I love Arby's. I know it's not cool to admit to ever eating at a fast food place but I do love me some Arby's. And I do love this vintage sign! I remember as a kid going to Arby's with my mom to pick up my dad's lunch. He was in the Navy and we'd run it over to him somewhere on base...32nd Street, San Diego. I'm a purist when it comes to Arby's...a regular roast beef sandwich, lots of Arby's sauce and potato cakes...yum! Linking with Signs, Signs

Can't remember where this is exactly but it's pretty much a familiar scene anywhere around here! Linking with Good Fences

  1. I love Arby's too... enough though I haven't managed to visit one for about 20 years. Great looking sign!

  3. The first area McDonalds was located beside that Arby's and it was one of the ones where the arches went across the building. That area was kind of the edge of town back in the 60s and Hollins was a separate area that had some fields between it and Roanoke.

  5. I think the fence might need a bit of work but it is a good shot.

  6. Oh gosh, I like that last mysterious photo, what a lovely view. I'm also a fan of their roast beef sandwich with Horsey sauce! The secret is in the sauce, always. It's one of my special treat places, every now and then.

  15. I like an Arby's every now and then, too. My downfall is Hardee's Thickburgers!

    That fence shot has an old feel to it that I like.

  16. Arby's here is a rarity. I remember one in a mall not far where I grew up, but if it's still there, I have no idea. I really like the mood in that second shot!

  17. We love Arbys too! and we are lucky enough to have one just a few blocks away. We just tried their fish sandwiches and they are soo good, with a big oval bun and lots of shredded lettuce. I had forgotten about the big hat! And never even noticed when they removed it. Now I'm trying to think if anything is in it's place.

  18. Always loved the Arby's sign. However, never, ever have I ever pulled into an Arbys. Kinda strange, huh.

  21. I like Arby's myself. My favorite there though is (seasonal) The Chicken Pecan Salad sandwhich or wrap. Cool old sign.
    Neat fencing, I like weathered fencing like that.

  22. There aren't many Arby's around here. But I do like stopping occasionally when we travel. I guess so long as it's not the only thing in the diet, it's okay now and then. Why not? That is a cool sign and a beautiful old fence.
