Spangles - Emporia, KS Spangles, a family owned chain. Emporia, Kansas location. This was the cleanest “fast food” business I’ve ever visited. Their breakfast menu was a thing of beauty. Someone should tell their manager that Spangles makes Whataburger look like a Taco Bell with health code violations that is located in a bus station dirty bathroom.

Uranium glass Poehler Mercantile Antiques Mall, Emporia, Kansas USA. Itʻs early 20th century glassware with uranium in it. Shine an ultraviolet light on it and it glows an eerie greenish yellow. Spooky! Not dangerous ... thereʻs more radiation coming out of a banana or bowl of spinach.
