If anyone wants my obsessive research on Jack Kerouac's hour in Sedro-Woolley in 1956, you can get it here. I always thought it was Herb's Chevron he went into, but I finally confirmed it didn't open until 1959, so it must have been Gus's Chevron, which is no longer there. ... Hold the presses!! I just heard from Gus's daughter. It was Gus's Chevron in 1956, but it WAS the same building as Herb's Chevron! For some reason it had a different address, but I'm going to trust the daughter's word over the address. .... WHOA! The gas station owner (Gus) is still alive! 96 years old and still has his mind and memory.
