For supper, we drove to Bicknell for some of that wood-fired pizza. The little shop was closed up tight. Since gas was 20 cents cheaper in Bicknell, I gassed up and then asked the attendant about the outdoor pizza shop. She told me that they set up whenever they feel like it. There isn’t any set schedule. Now that’s a business model.
On a side note, this gas station sold non-ethanol 88 octane gas for the same price as their cheapest 85 octane 10% ethanol gas. I picked the 88. Back home, Fleet Farm used to sell non-ethanol gas cheap and I got significantly better gas mileage with it. Ethanol doesn’t have the same level of energy that gasoline has.
Oh yeah, supper? We returned to the General Store for their pulled pork deli sandwich only to find out that the deli folds up for the day at 4 pm. We were too late. But, the Chuckwagon trailer parked in the General Store’s parking lot, threw open their window for business just as we were about to leave empty-handed (or empty-stomached). We threw health to the wind and got a pulled pork BBQ sandwich and fries. It was delicious.
