About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an old mechanic named Don grumbled under his breath as he bent over a rusty engine. ‘This thing won’t start today,’ he muttered. Suddenly, his head popped up and he exclaimed, ‘Wait a minute—what’s that?’ Out of nowhere, a squirrel scurried across the workbench, scattering tools everywhere. 'What in tarnation?' Don roared, but then he grinned sheepishly. 'Guess I’ll just have to fix it tomorrow.' He turned back to the squirrel, scratching its head gently. 'You little rascal, you must’ve been trying to tell me something!'
2. At dawn, when most mechanics were still dreaming of wrenches and oil, a delivery driver pulled up to Don’s Automotive Shop with a puzzled look on his face. The shop had been quiet for years, but lately, every morning around six, someone left a fresh bouquet of flowers outside its door. Finally, one foggy morning, an old man emerged from the shop carrying a small cardboard box. Inside was a single rose, slightly drooping, along with a note scribbled in pencil: ‘To whomever takes care of my car—thank you for always making it home.’ The delivery driver grinned, realizing that Don’s mysterious flower deliveries were actually gifts from grateful customers who’d forgotten their keys.'
3. At midnight, when even cars stopped talking, a delivery driver pulled up to Don’s Automotive Shop with a mysterious package. ‘Just another day in paradise,’ muttered Don, but something felt off as he signed for it. Curious, Don opened it—just an old cassette tape labeled ‘80s Hits’. As he popped it into his ancient stereo, the shop came alive with music. The next morning, everyone in town was humming along. Turned out, it was just a prank from a neighbor who loved classic rock.
4. At dusk, when neon signs flicker on across town, a delivery driver pulled up to Don’s shop. ‘Hey, Don,’ he called out. ‘I’ve got something for you—your new sign, finally!’ But as soon as he walked in, Don squinted at the glowing letters and shook his head. 'This ain't my sign,' he said with a laugh. Turns out it was a neighbor’s old sign from his failed coffee shop venture. The delivery driver scratched his head and muttered, 'Guess I better keep an eye on those neon signs.'
