Abbeville - Standard Oil Service Stations

[fr8pilot1]

The Blue Spring State Park meeting was my second time to visit Abbeville. Last year, I took a a lot of photos and was looking forward to finding more interesting places this year. I was not disappointed. On my drive to Huggin Molly's I took a different route down Washington Street and came upon a completely restored Standard Oil Service Station.

After a great lunch, I backtracked to the station and took a few minutes to marvel at how it took me back in time. I am thankful for men like Jimmy Rane, Yella Fellow, for his part in preserving the history of Abbeville.

BTW: I am working on the photos from the meeting and will post as soon as possible.

did either of you happen to see that sign on the old building next door to Hagler's that said "Press Parking Only"? I thought that was oddly placed and I meant to go check it out and snap a frame off it....
