I've posted these before, but I still eye them whenever we drive by. Inquired about them once.

There is an triangular island just as you head into Snyder, TX - the highway becomes a split road in town. It was a gas staion and now is a retro station, but I think it is for show only. Next time I drive through I'll be sure to snap a shot.
Great DP wall - can't say I have ever seen the slogan "Three Good Times To Enjoy Life More" - what does that slogan date to?

3 Good times to enjoy more was from the early 40's. It meant enjoy Dr Pepper at the 10, 2 and 4. I only know this, because I worked for Dr Pepper. Slogan was only used for 2 years.
