Then they went to "Full Service" and "Self Service" islands, then it was "Self Service" only and we get to pay $3.00/gal. There's a lot to say for the "Good Old Days". You sure don't get much for your money these days (Unless you buy a Pressure Pro System).Bob and Judyhttp://adventureswithdharma.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5585083146261174706.post-13836953337281522982009-06-10T19:39:27.206-07:002009-06-10T19:39:27.206-07:00Thank you so much for the history lesson.

Being a "Jersey Girl" I've never pumped my own gas, but as long as I've been driving, no attendant has ever even offered to wash my windshield or check my oil or tires. Sad that I am too young to remember the "good ol' days". I enjoy your blog, keep on teaching me history.Janis Thomasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5585083146261174706.post-81121180137772602512009-06-10T12:04:16.488-07:002009-06-10T12:04:16.488-07:00Yes I bearly remember them.

This gas station was at the bottom of a long twisty road going into a canyon. It was the only gas station in the park, and gas was well over $3 a gallon. Nobody checked our oil or windshield wipers that time.Jerry and Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01381487159402842587noreply@blogger.com
