I hope he's not waiting on them from Australia where Ford has ceased manufacturing. Oh, and where FORD stands for Fix Or Repair Daily. Big Grin

Yes as well as “Find On Road Dead” Wink. I know, my first car was a Ford Maverick.

RE: Let's see your CB1100 out on the road!

A former Sinclair gas (petro) station. According to the owner, the station closed with the Texaco brand probably during the 1980's. The photo was taken today in beautiful downtown Unionville, NY.

I don’t know when this gas station was built, but I believe small gas stations like this were common back in the 1930’s.

Around here (western PA) I have seen rather small ones, just not that small! My grandfather owned an Esso station in the early 60s (my favorite place in the world as a small boy) that was quite old at the time. It was a tiny frame structure with three pumps, but it had a service bay, wash bay, and "office" in the middle. This station was in a small town, in the middle of a residential area.

Were the building still there, it would be my Photo Challenge picture, but no . . .

Very late entry for May... Your bike with the Moon

Actually, it's gibbous, as I was a few days late for full and couldn't find any Gibbous Moon signs.
On another note, perhaps the idea of allowing the first person submitting a photo who has not chosen a topic before win "next to choose" honors.
Or something like that, to mix it up a bit. For your consideration.
