A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unseasonably warm October morning when Love’s gas station came alive with unusual activity. A delivery driver pulled up in his truck, only to notice that the clock above the counter seemed to be ticking backwards. The delivery driver shrugged and walked inside, where he found the attendant humming along to an old radio show on the ancient console. ‘Time sure does fly back here,’ the man chuckled, filling up his tank. Just then, a neighbor popped in for coffee, remarking, “I thought I saw you guys open early today.” The attendant smiled, saying nothing, as the clock continued its quirky backward tick.

2. At dawn one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Love’s and noticed something strange: the air smelled like freshly baked cookies wafting from inside. Curious, he opened the door—and found an old man humming softly as he arranged rows of colorful candies on shelves. ‘Morning,’ said the man without turning around. The delivery driver smiled, realizing it was just another day at Love’s. As he left, he overheard the old man muttering, “Same time tomorrow, little guy.”

3. At dusk one autumn evening, a neighborhood watchman patrolling near Love’s noticed something odd—a soft humming sound coming from behind the pumps. Curious, he approached and saw only a small boy with headphones, dancing to his favorite tune while pumping gas for his toy car. The watchman smiled, thinking it was love indeed—love for music, that is.

4. At sunset one summer evening, a family stopped for gas at Love’s. Their little girl pointed excitedly towards the pump, whispering, ‘Daddy, look! The gas is winking at us!’ The father laughed and said, 'Honey, it’s just the light bouncing off the nozzle.' But as he bent down to adjust the hose, he noticed something odd—all the other pumps seemed to be smiling back at them too! His wife shook her head, smiling, and whispered, 'Maybe we should fill up our tank with happy gas today.'
