Looks like you had the same cloud coverage in your area that I had in my area.
But check out those palms
The restaurant is very similar to Chi Chi's, a restaurant in the Midwest.

Wow! I've never seen anything like that before where the pipe (or a collection of long boards) was used for a purpose other than supporting a wall. Amazing!

Are the old meters still accurate? Or... should they be replaced?

The quarters were on the beach? That sounds like a nice set-up at the time!
