We stopped at this dinner that had been established in the 1930s. It was on the first road across Zion (at a state-of-the-art (at the time) tunnel.
When they first put up this sign, it was supposed to read HOME MADE PIES. But there wasn't enough room, so they wrote HO MADE PIES. Apparently, that was fine for decades, until "ho" meant what it does now.
But people loved the sign, HO and all, so they kept it through all the upgrades.
PS: The pies were very very good.
The owner passed away not long after it was built, but the wife took over for decades, and it is still family owned.
