nodding donkey

Ellensburg, WA

arriving at Ellensburg on the first day, was keen to get to the motel, but had to pull over when I spotted this place...the Mobil gas station dates from 1936, but the building has now become a bar named the Nodding Donkey

Very cool. The oversized pump must be a nod that it's going down here. Great way to start your trip.
