Cousin Eldean Kreitzer adds about this photo:

"The photo was taken at Uncle Frank's house. As you looked at the front of the house, just left and to the rear side of the house was their pump. Just left of that area was a driveway. The building you see in the background was to the left side of a driveway. It was a store, but not a grocery store. The grocery store was across the street."
