4-way stop in Arcola (intersection of 133 & 45), facing west

Blimp millers Phillips 66

Wow!

That's me getting in the car on the North side of the station. I'm going to pull it around to the lube rack!! Ha! You need good vision to see me!!

Working at the station was my summer recreation! Good old days!!

Gladys Seaman and her brother Ed Smith house behind the trees just before the field. This area became the hardware store (was True Value and now Graber). Looks like the Bottenberg house between there and "Fats" garage was already razed.
