About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Chevron, every morning around dawn, a delivery driver would notice the same thing—a mysterious note on the counter. It always read: ‘Fill up your tank with luck today.’ No signature, no explanation. One day, after filling up his truck, a delivery driver looked closer and found that each note was signed with a tiny pencil sketch of a smiling gas pump. Turned out, it was done by an anonymous neighbor who thought Chevron needed some cheerfulness. From then on, customers started leaving little notes and drawings for each other—making Chevron not just a gas station but a place where good vibes were always filled up.
2. At Chevron, one day after closing, an attendant noticed something unusual in the cash register drawer—an old, dusty coin that didn’t belong there. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a commemorative coin from the town’s centennial celebration decades ago. The attendant decided to keep it as a souvenir and joked, ‘Maybe our next customer will pay with another time-traveling coin!’ A regular passing by laughed and said, ‘Or maybe they’ll just fill up their tank like everyone else.’
3. At Chevron, late one night when the pumps were quiet, a gas station attendant heard someone whispering from behind the counter. 'Fill it up,' said no one, 'with stars and dreams.' The next morning, the manager found an empty bottle of whiskey under the counter. ‘Who left this?’ he asked aloud. Then he looked around and saw a note scribbled on a receipt: “Thanks for the refill, Chevron!” Turned out, it was just a neighborhood prankster having fun after dark.
4. At Chevron, during lunchtime rush, a regular would always order the same sandwich—until one day, the sign above the counter changed subtly: ‘Today’s Special: Your Wife’s Cooking.’ The next day, our hero noticed another change: ‘Special Today: Your Kids’ Help.’ He grinned and ordered without hesitation. Later that evening, his wife asked why he looked so happy. With a twinkle in his eye, he replied, ‘They’re finally learning how to cook!’
