This episode I travel 117 miles south of Jamestown to Steve Ray's Midnite Oil full service automotive center. The Midnite Oil is just an ole gas station as Steve calls it but it's a throwback to the golden days of Route 66 and when roadside attractions were popular in America. The days when you could actually get your vehicle repaired at the gas station. The Midnite Oil is definitely an old time full service gas station but there is something that is very unique about it as well. Listen in to find out just exactly what it is as I talk with Steve about buisness, life and barbecue!
Meet Mr. Lincoln
Faces To Places
01/17/22 • 36 min
It's not very often you get the opportunity to set down with a President of The United States of America but I sure did! I had the privilege of setting across the table and having a conversation with President Abraham Lincoln right here in the Recording Bunker at Faces To Places Headquarters! Actually it was Dennis Boggs who has been telling the story of Abe Lincoln for over 20 years and he has a great story about how he got into local theatre and the role it played in helping him to become one of the best Abraham Lincoln presenters in the country. Dennis also tells about the time he gave a presentation of President Lincoln on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. When Dennis was sitting across the table I couldn't believe how much he looked like Abe Lincoln so you just got to go to Faces To Places FB page to see for yourself. Just Amazing!
