Another interesting use of a large airplane in Oregon was The Bomber gas station. It was in Milwaukee, a suburb of Portland. I loved buying gas there! It was so fun!
This link provides a really great little history of The Bomber as a service station and how it came to be. It is a wild story that could never be repeated today!
If you have any interest in Portland’s history or this kind of “attraction,” you should spend a few minutes at the Bomber Service link. At one time, it apparently sold more gas than any other single gas station in the country. It closed as a gas station in 1991.

MEPHISTOPHELES and MARGARITA is of '‘Satan’ (Mephistopheles is one of his any names) and Margarita is the Character from the Play ‘Faust’.
Faust was about a man using the devils help to get his lover (Margarita) out of prison, but when she see’s Mephistopheles she panics and dies.
Eventually they all will. Happy to bring a ray of sunshine!
Man, that one “draw bridge” that’s all atilt! That’s some cool shit!
