Old gas stations that are still around along with old car dealerships, auto repair garages and other petro sights. We just got back from a road trip along the southern shore of Lake Superior. Here are a few shots I saw on the back roads of western U.P. Michigan and northern Wisconsin. Old Spur station in Silver City, MI with its back to Lake Superior Old station on the Keweenaw Peninsula Another old station on the Keweenaw Peninsula Got a couple of problems with the roof and garage door Jim "Oldgas" Potts Your host and moderator

You could live upstairs and have your dream gas station for your collection on the ground floor A "76" sign that was repainted for a generic brand. Now that most of the paint is word off, the 76 is left crooked Interesting "V" shaped picture window room on the right side Not a gas station, but an unusual north country bar & grill. Note the propped open door. Jim "Oldgas" Potts Your host and moderator
