Rays of Sunshine

 

It’s hard to overlook Ray’s Diner. On Broadway in downtown Excelsior Springs, Ray’s low-slung exterior shouts the words “Ray’s Famous HamburgerS” stretched across the diner’s face in mismatched hand lettered fonts over an awning that screams in candy cane colors. Open the old-fashioned screen door with the Rainbo Bread handleplate, step onto the red and white checkered floor in the shadow of a hundred memorable logos from your childhood, and enter 90 years of fried or scrambled, white or wheat, ketchup and mustard, pickles and cheeseburgers, chili, fish & chips and homemade pies.
