About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever wonder why that old truck always pulls up right before closing?’ The clerk shrugged and replied, ‘I guess he just likes our gas better than anyone else’s.’ The regular laughed and said, ‘Or maybe he knows something we don’t!’ As they were talking, the old truck pulled in again—just as the sign clicked over to ‘Closed’—and the delivery driver waved cheerfully from behind the wheel.
2. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the cashier and said, 'I’ve been coming here for years, but do you notice how every Wednesday, exactly at three o’clock, our gas pump number four starts singing?' The cashier shrugged, ‘Maybe it’s just a leaky seal.’ But then, on Wednesdays at precisely 3 PM, everyone in line would hear clear as day: ‘Happy birthday to you…’ The old man smiled knowingly. ‘It’s their little secret,’ he whispered.}
3. At dawn one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron and asked the attendant, 'Why does everyone always seem to leave here in such a hurry?' The attendant grinned and replied, ‘Because they’re never supposed to stay long—this place is for filling up tanks, not lives!’ The delivery driver nodded wisely, then asked if he could use the bathroom. As he walked away, muttering something about needing coffee more than gas, the attendant smiled and said to himself, ‘Another regular.’
4. At dusk, when most gas stations are quiet, a neighbor walked into Chevron carrying a basket of freshly baked cookies. The clerk smiled and asked, "What brings you in so late?" The neighbor replied, 'Just thought I'd say thanks for always being there.' Suddenly, another voice chimed in from behind the counter: ‘And don’t forget to come back tomorrow—we’ve got some new cookies!’ The neighbor laughed and said, “I’ll be here, same time, same station.” As they left, the delivery driver chuckled, shaking his head, ‘Another day, another cookie story.’
