Train Display

While we were visiting Memphis we visited a museum called The Pink Palace. It’s an old mansion made of a stone that had sort of a light pink tint.

Is this gas pump broken?

As many of you know, I traded my full-sized pickup when gas began to get really expensive.  So it’s been a good long while since I’ve pumped gas and had the pump kick off anywhere short of $30.
Today I put fuel in my car and I stood there thinking,  “Gosh, this pump must be broken”.  [...]
