Needed to run several errands in town so loaded up mom's mini van and as I went to start it...it was dead...grrrrrrrr!!! Yes, I know I have been saying I was going to buy a new battery but the mechanic insisted it was still good. Last time we used it was Tuesday when we went to Mexico. Folks procrastination never pays, take it from me :-(
One of my errands involved a trip to the bank where I noticed that the new Stripes was now opened for business. Asked the teller when it opened and she said today. Went to check it out.
Gas was going for $3.48 but when I got to the pumps they had lowered it to $3.45.
They have a large eating area inside but when I asked if I could take a picture, they told me I couldn't. They have a lube center something I had never seen at a Stripes before.
I took the following picture exclusively for Billy Bob. This guy had a long trailer that I could not even fit into the picture so I think "Sally da house" and "that jeep" could fit here. You can't say I don't look out for you :D
Before Town & Country was bought out by Stripes you could get free air and water in all the pumps. I hate to have to pay for something like this that should be free. Since they pissed me off by not letting me take a picture inside, I will get even and tell you all to go to the Exxon by the Lake where air and water are FREE.
The other reason I took the above picture is so you could see how the temperature went from 93 when I arrived at the bank to 95 after I left Stripes. Another bank up the road had a reading of 96 but I was not fast enough to snap a picture.
