When Grand-dad was the plant manager for Standard Oil in Monahans, the oil tank was about 500 yards behind his back yard. I used to walk there every day and climb the thing. Grand-dad said that the oil storage unit didn't work because it leaked, and that at some point a scuba outfit tried to turn it into a water park.

The Montfort Dr and LBJ McDonalds has been torn down and rebuilt as an ordinary, boring McDonalds.
