A lonely, smallish building by today's standards. The historical marker mentioned in a previous tip is still there. So interesting to imagine it being a popular, busy place back in its heyday. Plenty of room to park.

Only feet off the road, a historic place to stretch the legs and think about how it was to travel in a different era...
[Will & Laura, 03/10/2010]Lucille's was a gas station on Route 66. The outside has been restored and a marker tells the tale of the family that lived there and ran the station for many years.
