The is the first of many RT66 vintage gas stations we visited as we make our way west to Phoenix. This station seems to have changed quite abit, with one picture I found had 2 pumps. If you view in Google Maps you will see that the dancer is faded, but it looks as if the station was freshly painted, including the silouette.
