Smoky Boy

His features had begun a steady deterioration long before the Old Country Smokehouse finally closed. Had it ever been open? Whenever I stopped to photograph the store, the gate was drawn across the front of the store, and there was no sign of activity within. Now the front signage is gone. Only Smoky Boy remains, and he becomes less recognizable for what he is. One more Cleveland winter will most likely obliterate him.
