You needed to be a red head to work here. It all smelled so good. Nothing like fried fish and chips right out of the oil. © The cooks were professionals from Kearny, NJ, fish and chip mecca.
This is the sort of community event that breathes life into a town like OG.

Thanks David, and congratulations on the great honor bestowed to you by the Historical Society of OG. Paul @ Blogfinger.net
The Auditorium Pavilion has recently been repainted, though not in the historic colors that were likely gray-green and cream (discolored white?). Another change was the installation of a lightning rod on the central mast. As is generally known, this originally housed a scale model of 19th century Jerusalem with an advertising banner on the flagpole in 1885.
