I like the sign on the side: "Make The Call...We Take It ALL!" .... considering those are marked with an "X" for removal!

I remember full-service stations. They don't exist in my area, sad to say.

The disassembled one was interesting to see the oil in the tank still.they were pulling the copper off
There a scrap pile of that one near these others.the switching station had a lot of these.when I first saw this I thought it was from big blue.I looked at the switching station it has these .

That's new.it's not old.at first I thought it was Siffords.it's Millers.from that station the towers of Big blue can be seen.it was listed as just west of the causeway.

It's easy to see in the video that the full-service station is new.

I hope the concept catches on with the Snow Birds, and they'll bring the revival back to the Midwest!

Rather doubt it will arrive to my area of the US ... too many wouldn't want to pay more for full-service when it's not all that difficult to pump one's own gas.

If my brain wasn't so tired at this point in time, I'd probably be able to come up with the name of the beach. The restaurant to the right of center and in the upper half of the picture tells me I know the location. Brain just isn't functioning on all gears, sad to say.

Humiston beach in the late 60s .I remember much of this as that is how it was with those benches.

 

[AirDancer]

Humiston beach...yes!

I like the benches along the walkway. Benches are such friendly concepts!

Still has it.storms such Hermine have really damaged this beach and the Ocean Grill .

 

[AirDancer]

I would imagine so. Those storms are so powerful, with the constant pounding of surf, surge & waves.

A long time ago to me ,in the 80s under that board walk were three signs .I could dig up one of them.these were businesses advertisements.The only one I remember the best was the surfs up sign.I found that last in 1990.these were removed that year and the signs were between the southern most stair case to the one just north of the life guard house.I started my driftwood route hear.I can point out the bathrooms as well.
