On a state-wide barn tour excursion one Sunday afternoon, we stumbled across this tiny little burg that time forgot. This gas station was built back in the 1920’s along the historic Lincoln Highway. We ate at the Niland Café (great cheeseburgers!) and enjoyed the loving restoration of these old structures. If ever you find yourselves in central Iowa, check out the old time charm of this state treasure!

Nice … Like the sound of those burgers!
Tasted even better! I’ve been trying to eat healthier and haven’t had a cheeseburger in months. Love me a good burger!
I haven’t eaten a burger in years LOL! Right that’s it, I’m going to eat one this weekend 😀
Bon appetit!
This photo has everything, old, new signs, roads. Wonderful composition too. Thanks for playing.
[…] A Sawyer’s Daughter – This is a perfect which way, especially for me who likes vintage gas stations. A road and plenty of signs along with a vintage gas pumps. […]

Wonderful. Thank you Cee!!
You are welcome. I told you that I like this photo! 🙂
You did, indeed. Funny thing, I didn’t really give it much thought until your challenge prompt!
What a great view to frame the road! I love the vintage look of that gas station.
Thank you! It was a great – and surprising ! – way to cap off a fun day!!
