A** for gas it was called then. Those were real "service" stations. She had a Hudson. I did like that car.
AH Yes!!!! Late night cruisin could make a gal get low on gas when business was slow.

My first taste of Whisky was Old Grandad but Old Crow was in there a few time after also. I think back then, Old Crow or Old Grandad was to whisky what Mogan David and Boones Farm was to wine.

BTW, I have the broom and mop covered.
