Just past SunnySide Plaza (on the same side)
across from the motel there is a little white building, (or at least it's white now) with a glass block window.look's like it used to be a bar, is this correct?

I can't picture the building--I'll have to look for it the next time I'm out that way.

I know the Continental Restaurant is right beside the new CVS, and there is a boat sales/repair place along there, and I think the Sunnyside Cafe or Diner is still there, but I'm not sure if it is still in business. But a white building with a glass block window?? I'll have to look for it!

Someone told me there used to be one in the small field South of Route 50 and just West of Hogue Creek but it washed away in the 1940's or 1950's. You still got me. Daisy's and Red's ? Where?

Daisy and Red's was on Rt. 7 headed east, in that area that is now a dual highway. It might be the same building that held "Granny's Place", but maybe not. In that area, anyway.

I think it was the falling-down building on 522 south of Winchester (Front Royal Road) where there's always an old truck or two rusting out front. The building's roof is caved in.

I was incorrect. See preceding post.

The building on Front Royal Road with the caved-in roof was the old "Lucky Inn".

I was never in it, either, but I understand it was a hangout for lots of folks from 'round here'.

Anyone else remember it??

It's the white building to the left of the Continental Resturant.
