Random Views Over the Years
The second image is of the Horse Drawn Trolley in the mid-1960s. It appears to be a rather crowded day, yet the crowd still does not walk on the street. 
The final image is from approximatley 1977. The gentleman smoking on deck would not look out of place amongst today's hipsters. His hat is very Bicenteniellific!

Large Format Photographs- Part 8 Columbia and South of the Border
The next four images are from South of the Border. Located near Dillon, South Carolina on I-95. The location in the 1950's. 1960's and 1970's was basically barren with no towns or stops. The owner had built a beer stand and received lumber marked to South of the North Carolina Border. This set off a lightbulb, and he created a roadside attraction themed to Mexico. Over the years, he built up the location and advertised the stop with hundreds of bill boards (most featuring Pedro and bad puns.) Now there is much more built up around the stop, but it still pulls in the tourists in need of gas, food and bathroom break. Here are some of my favorite images:

Large Format Photographs- Part 7 Sleeping Beauty Castle
For those who want to know about my adventure, my wife is TDY in North Carolina. So I flew down there, rented a car, drove to Atlanta to go to the Trader Vic's and the Cyclorama. Of course we stopped at South of the Border on the way down. I will post some select images tomorrow, or if you are on Facebook, I will post all of the images on Facebook.
