Theme Day: Take Away Store

Today, August 1, 2014, is Theme Day across the CityDailyPhotoBlog (cdp) community. The theme this month zeroes in on places to 'take out' food. Since 1976, Don's Lunch van has been parked in downtown Westbrook. It's 1:00 AM in the morning. The bars have closed, and you're heading home. You've got the hunger. Want a couple of loaded, red hot dogs, perhaps a sausage, onion and cheese, or a pulled pork sandwich? You want to drive out of your way and get here. You won't be alone! You won't be disappointed!
Enjoy!

Now talk about the REAL 'take away'
Let's talk math!
Let's talk Subtraction!
At this point, if you are not a baseball fanatic, you better just move on. Pass GO and collect your $200.
Hang the black, velvet, mourning bunting. Why? It's ONLY August 1st, and my Red Sox are dead in the water. World Series Champs in 2013! Dead last this morning! Why you say again? Easy. John Lester GONE! John Lackey GONE! Johnny Gomes GONE! Stephen Drew GONE! Andrew Miller GONE! Jake Peavy GONE! 
WHAT the heck just happened???????
Whew!
This happened almost all in one 'black' Thursday.
Pray for me!
This is going to be a long August and September for me without baseball.
Go Patriots!

  1. Not for breakfast, sorry but yes for lunch! There's even my car parked there. That's what I usually drive when I'm in the US...

  2. Do you call them red hots in Maine? I remember seeing signs for "red hots" all over upstate NY. It took my husband and I awhile to figure out what they meant!

  5. It's a nice choice for theme day. But I don't understand the religion of baseball. It sounds sorta like you're in for a hellish time? :)

  12. Hey, I'm an Astro's fan. You just have to learn how to enjoy watching games where it doesn't matter.

  13. I haven't been to one of those late night places in decades. Shame on me.

    The Sox season has been dreadfully disappointing, but I thought they did OK with the trades (except for Andrew Miller). They got a power hitter for Jon Lester and I won't be surprised if they resign Lester over the winter. They got two decent players for Lackey. And Drew and Doubrant had to go.

  14. Sorry about the baseball situation for you. Not good. BUT do like your takeaway shot.

  15. Since the theme, I've been more interested in "take-away" food which previously had not enamored me, except for rolling kitchen gourmet food trucks. Your baseball woes certainly are sad commentary on your beloved team. Go Patriots? Nah, Go Packers!!
