With 6995 U.S. Highway 36 (pinned on map) seen in the foreground, the view is looking south into Long Creek, Illinois. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad is seen paralleling U.S. 36

Bart's store and gas station is pictured here. Bart also sold fireworks during the Independence Day holiday each year and was arrested a few times for doing so. Unfortunately his store was robbed and he was shot in 1973. He later died of the injuries. We could get a bottle of pop and a candy bar for a quarter there. I think there's a photography studio there now.
