The pumps have power to them (there are lights on in them), but as of 6AM this morning, I've not seen anyone pumping, nor prices in the sign

Well, that is starting to become the trend at Moultonborough Gas stations. The lights are all on but no gas in the pumps....

Thanks Sam.. I filled up there every time last year (as you saw) How could they have gone under??? LOL. It's a 100 gallon tank and I could only use premium due to the supercharger.. Luckily this year I have had it removed and brought back to stock so I can get away with mid-grade.

Yeah no need for any superchargers on the lake anymore eh? I was thinking about taking out my big 8s and sticking an electric trolling motor on the back of my 30 footer.

As you probably know, a gallon of gasoline weighs 6-lbs, which is 2-lbs less than a gallon of water!

So a hand carry, portable 100-gal tank would only weigh 600-lbs plus the weight of the container, plus it's flash-explosive and a hazadous material to just about everything, including asphalt paving.

Sorry I don't follow.. what does this have to do with Fullers or filling a tank?

Have seen a couple police cruisers hanging out there looking for some gold. Does that count?

Surprised they haven't opened up yet, I got the impression, via telephone, they would be.

Or 20 minutes ago when I drove by. That new sign is out there with no pricing (I will admit I wonder why they did not put a digital sign in so they can change their prices hourly (it seems) like the 3 exit 23 stations do.)

I think Fred Fuller is looking to open up a store at Lexington Drive in Laconia. I saw them in there the other day, I don't know if they indeed are gonna start up there, but it would be nice. I work in the Smith's Aerospace plant in the O'shea Industrial Park, and I used to go there all the time for stuff for lunchbreak when it was Reed's store. Hopefully maybe they open up there again.

I loved this response. Laughed and laughed and then went to see who trfour was and read his very interesting site! Lots of interesting photos for sure. Hope he finds out that the first batch is repeated many times before the last entry. Some might not see the second entry because of that so maybe edit out the repeats?
