Quite a few guys with tables at trains shows should consider that action.

Boy, ain't that the truth.

There is/was a nice restaurant called the Altland House in that building. Went there many times with my parents. Sits on the square in Abbottstown, which is peculiar as Pa. Rte. 30 runs through it, which is a pretty heavily traveled road (Lincoln Highway).

Variation of one - that structure on the corner......

A mansard or mansard roof is a four-sided gambrel-style hip roof characterized by two slopes on each of its sides with the lower slope, punctured by dormer windows, at a steeper angle than the upper.

I have what I think is a decent idea, but hard to test out until I can get over to a lumber mill.

I wonder if those two boys constructed that, seemingly makeshift, plank-pathway.
