Retro: Kentucky (Style) Fried Chicken!
Ten years ago we were in language school, but we were getting ready for the next step – our “orientation year”. It had not yet been decided where we would move to. So we spent some time visiting Cuautitlan Izcalli (north Mexico City) and Ixtapaluca (SE Mexico City). Next was Texcoco, and the area to the east side of the city, with our friends Rollie and Jo Ann Smith.
So that’s where we were as an extra-long February came to a close. We shot a lot of pictures of the rows and rows and rows of houses in the housing developments in the area (similar to the house we now live in!). I believe the picture below was taken in Los Heroes Tecamac.
(Since this picture was taken on the 29th, I’m posting it one day early!)
Some of these houses were also businesses, such as this one, boasting “Kentucky Style Fried Chicken”! See if you can also find the Victoria beer sign, the Bimbo (bakery) sign, the bicycle cart, the water jugs, and the string of shoes (for sale?):
