It's been almost a year since the previous "last" day of Ruby's at Coney Island and, as far as I know, there is still a chance they may be back. But, at their closing party yesterday, I had it in my mind to say goodbye to the Ruby's I've always known.
I haven't prepared my pictures yet, so here are some videos. The first shows the iconic photographs being taken down...
Here is a clip with "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" playing on the jukebox. If Elton were here, I'm sure he'd agree...
And, this one really breaks my heart. A couple dances to Frank Sinatra's "The Summer Wind"...this is how I'll always remember Ruby's.
