Another Landmark Lost
This one hurts. Bechtel's Dairy in Lewisburg, Pa., is closing at the end of the year. Back in the early '40s, this is where my parents would go on dates. And for years, this is where they took their kids when we went to visit Nana & Pa Pa. I loved so many things about this place: the "Holiday Inn" curve of the sign, the typography of the name, the mmmmm....yummy teaberry ice cream, and especially the cow on the roof. C'mon -- how could you not love a place that had a cow on the roof?
