Small Town Truck Stop


You can’t miss this one! I pass it in the mornings, day after day after day! The owners have placed the semi so the truckers traveling I-81 can see it. This is where I get off the interstate - when I drive the it rather than the country roads - and onto my school road. We have two very large truck stops which provide towing services and repairs, but for some reason this one really appeals to me. It appears to be an old Mom and Pop business looking at the 2 door. It makes me smile each time I see it. Am assuming the 65 does not mean $65 an hour but rather the hours it is open...6:00-5:00.

I thought that it was $65 /hr! Not bad pay!

Martha Z said...

That 65 hr is hard to figure.

Wonderful shot. Nice way to display open times.

great idea for advertising!

I got a giggle out of this - I actually thought 65 was the number of hours it took to get your welding job done! :=}

This is a great sign!!!

Annie said...

I have to agree with you. Very much like the mom and pop mood of this place. It provides the basics and gets the job done without extra distractions to separate you from your money.

A very homely sign - clearly just written by hand! And what a great idea for advertising - giving the impression that you get personal service!

It is eye catching. Though that 6 5 hr is a bit confusing!
