LEFT BEHIND ON THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY
The Youngville Cafe and gas station once served families and traveling salesmen on the Lincoln Highway. Now the cafe is open occasionally as a labor of love, staffed by volunteers who serve food to people curious about the history of the place. The gas pumps still stand, but haven’t filled anyone’s tank in a long stretch of decades. For this picture I envisioned showing the old tanks with a vehicle speeding by, and after a lot of waiting along the lonely road, eventually was rewarded by this truck passing at high speed.
