Nice find Kenny. I keep hearing wind when I see your pics. Can you tell I have spent time in Colorado? :)

Thanks Stan, out exploring today, just added a second one from the same location.

Mitch, we did have some gusts today, it was a pain in the butt to get some the shots I wanted. No way an HDR would've worked. :)

Didn't see that second shot the first time around. So the first one is gas and this is the food? Yeah, no wonder they went under. :)

This is the outdoor table for the "Dairy King" (may post shots later)

Actually more breakfast time, but no. Actually I did see a couple a few weeks ago stopped for lunch (or a break) at another (maybe a bit better) roadside table here:

Thanks nwyman, I thought so too. :) I wish that were the price today! And the sign is not really that old, pretty new looking and this shot cost about $10.00 in gas to get. :)

2nd is very nice, too. Ah, Kenny, I paid 17 cents/gal as a kid in my father's 56 Chevy.

Yep, we're almost contemporaries. :) I definitely remember it being in teens, maybe as cheap as 12 cents/gal..... Oh for the days...

Added the motel image. Now we've got Gas, A place to eat, and a place to lie our heads and rest. :)
