We were seated in a different part of Merci Beacoup than usual last night so this is the first time I remember seeing this real gas pump. I was talking about it and one of the ladies who worked there shared its story. She said that Merci had once been a gas station and that the pump was original to that station. There are also French Doors where the roll up doors used to be. I hate that I failed to get a shot of them. When the girl told me about the gas station, I had a flash of memory and I do remember a gas station being there back when I was going to NSU back in the late '70's and early '80"s. Note gas was 50 cents back then.
