When I mentioned in a recent comment that kitsch made for great photography & interesting posts, here's an example I had in mind, the now renowned Buzzard's Roost, down in Yarnell. Friends Patti and Bob had raved about the BBQ; sometime later my friend
sheoflittlebrain determined to treat me to a birthday lunch at Buford's. A couple of months late, but the wait was well worth it.
A large part of the restaurant's land is occupied by the hokey Western set (that's what Mrs. Buford calls it, as in "striking the set" when the lease is up next month.)
There isn't as much room for stage setting inside Buford's, but there are interesting objects, like this range you'd remember if you were anywhere near my age.
Even a couple of namesake buzzards up near the eaves.
And here's my birthday luncheon plate -- beans, gently cooked veggies, and a huge sandwich chockablock full of BBQ-to-die for. No, I didn't eat it all at one sitting; yes, I did have BBQ for supper that night! And, yes, we did have further adventures that day which I'll post at another time. One other important note: the lease for the Buzzard's Roost is up mid-July; the Bufords are actively looking for another location. In Yarnell.
