Old Gas Station - Rural Pamlico County NC

The abaondoned building was likely once a gas station serving the needs of the surrounding rural community. One can easily imagine old cars and trucks stopping by to refuel. Perhaps the business was outfitted with an old school visible gas pump or a pump with a glass globe on the top.

The interior of the building possibly servied as a popular gathering place for local farmers. There was a pot bellied stove to warm their chilled bones. It's easy to imagine these hard working dirt farmers discussing the weather, the status of their crops and local gossip. Such was life in rural America for family farmers.
