In the early to mid 50's gas was 12.9 to 13.9 cents per gallon. But there were constant gas wars, and it would drop to 10.5 on Sat. and Sunday, and on Saturday night at midnight for one hour would drop to 9.9 cents per gal. This was in farm country south/east PA.

This will crack some of you up. You were not allowed to pump your own gas. Even if you were the gas station attendant at the station across the street. Or if you worked for the same station, but it was your day off, you were still not allowed to pump your own gas. Wow have times changes.


ALASKA is a "HARD COUNTRY for OLDMEN". (But if you live it wide'ass open, balls'to the wall, the pedal floored, full throttle, it is a delightful place, to finally just sit-back and savor those memories while sipping Tequila).
