PICS (1:1) Let's Eat and Get Gas.......Part 65...(NOW IN LIVING COLOR...sometimes)......
Looks like the big guy on the sign hasn't had his coffee yet this morning. I could use some, too and maybe pickup some souvenirs. It's a roadside attraction in Florence, Oregon, c.1962....

A real treat! Now I wonder who was brave enough to drive that little BMW/Isetta in the first pic. Imagine holding on while you were passed by one of the big station wagons.

Gene this looks like the Little America WY at Mile Post 38 Little America, Cheyene is another 360 mi
East of here their Dining Room is not where this is shown and the lodge is due west of Dining Room in Little America where the lodge is northwest of the Dining Room and back further on the property in Cheyene. We have stayed at both places as well as Little America at Salt Lake City Food is GREAT in all three locations. We were at SLC about 3 weeks ago.
