Mels Filling Station sure looks like it had lots of lots of character in it's day. Today's petrol stations are just so impersonal and automated. Out of the two, I know which sort I like the best. The Tiger looks really great too
Hi all, don't know if any of you remember me. I haven't posted in some time. I've been working a lot and, when not working, I've been obsessing over my beloved Seattle Seahawks! Oh boy, was that wait for a Lombardi a long one, but it felt sooo good! Anyway, I know there are several of you that like these old gas stations. I figured it's time to start posting again and this was as good a return post as any I can think of. This station is in old town Issaquah Washington. Not exactly abandoned, in fact. I think it is officially an historic landmark. I thought it was very cool.
Hey Key, I just noticed you left me a Christmas greeting. Thanks and merry Christmas to you to... LOL Sorry I never saw it until now. That "Superb Owl" as it had come to be known on the message board I frequented hoping not typing the actual name wouldn't jink it, was truly one I thought would never happen. I went to the party on the streets the night after and the parade later and just generally tried to soak it all in. I graduated from high school the year the Seahawks played their first season. That is a long azz time ago..
