I sometimes come in early in the morning before work for gas and coffee. When i went a few days ago, a tall male cashier with clip in hair really made my day. Very friendly and above that, humorous. We had a short talk about our long hair and he genuinely made my morning better. Nice start to my day. Will be back more often.

During periods of heavy snow accumulation the station was not plowed and the pumps & card readers were covered in snow, forcing driver to clean snow off of display and card reader in order to purchase fuel.
