Foster Service and restaurant.

The Tresler Comet gas station on Montgomery Road (US 22/3) immediately before you got to the Old 3-C Highway to the north a hundred yards. Tresler Comet of course had the famous Sinclair logo of a brontosaurus (what kid didn't love that!). I'm not certain he owned this station in 1969 but believe he did in later years, Don Adams who lived in the Overbrook subdivision just a mile or so up the road. The Adams kids all went to Kings Mills schools and were great friends to everyone. :) I can still remember Don owning a classic Chevy Nomad station wagon that he built to the gills and watching him "pull the front wheels off the ground doing a hole-shot on Stephen Street in Overbrook.
