I have passed by this bowling establishment more times than I can remember. It has always been on my must-picture list but until this past Sunday, upon seeing the cloudless and incredibly blue sky, I knew then was the time to check it off on my must-picture list.

Neat-o. Love the shots.

I should have said... "neat-o... love the snaps" (more in tune with the style of your pictures.

I was sitting here looking at the "snaps" again and thought... wonder exactly where this was taken. Of course you gave the city, and Google maps showed me all the bowling establishments, and with my first pick I went into "street view"... there it is!

Amazing to me that this is possible.

Actually, this is in Pennsauken, NJ. I spent every minute of my first 20 summers across the parking lot at woodbine swim club, and was forbidden to go in the bowling alley...my mother apparently felt the wrong kinds of people hang out in bowling alleys...
