I think Jack’s is in Biggs…I’ll need to check up on that though. If it’s the one I’m thinking of, it’s still there.
I also think that Jack’s is or was in Biggs. I think it may be gone today though replaced with a new truck stop and McDonalds. ;-(
Check out the mountains behind the new structure in Google Street View and compare them with Jack’s skyline.

Good one.
Great post! I love using the songs to title postcards.
My father made that sign in front of the Town House in Newport Oregon.
I think that is also his car that is visible. His shop Newport Neon was right next door.
