I recently traveled to Artesia, NM, to attend a funeral. On the way back, I stopped at Shamrock, Texas, and took this photo of the Conoco Tower Station and U-Drop In Cafe.
Other than the unique look of the station that was built in 1936, I also found it interesting they served food at the cafe, filled your car with gas, worked on cars, and do your laundry.
I guess you could say that was the small town Walmart back in the day.
