Great Food
I think this shot is a stylistic sister of this one, with the lighting coming from outside, the placement of the door in the frame, and the general grittiness of the image.
You wouldn’t believe me if I said I planned it that way, would you?
No, of course you wouldn’t. You’re smart like that.
But in any case, this was a good place to stop for lunch. (I sat at the counter.)

But don’t start down that road to the the ocean from yesterday’s post quite yet: you’ll want to stop for lunch. Trust me on this.
A good suggestion would be Poppa Joe’s (“Home of Good Eats – Serving Ferndale Since 1882”), right on the main street in Ferndale. Grab a seat at the counter and you get a bonus with your lunch: watching the cook, who never stops moving, make plate after plate of food. Almost everyone will be a local; the waitress’ll greet them with, “You need to see a menu?” No one will, and she knew that before she asked.
If you are at the end of the counter, you can see this sign on a shelf. I don’t know what it means, but I kind of like the title Beeper Keeper.
