    old gas station pics

    sry i have nothing to really add. except i was oddly surprised when i scrolled through to find a picture of a local garage. The one in Woodstock Ontario is still empty but has a picnic area and one of those mobile fajitas trailers parked in the lot with permant barriers around it.
