The Shell station on Bardstown Road near the Gardiner Lane shopping center remained open despite the giant billboard crashing in to the pump area during the storm on Saturday, August 13.
I find it perhaps a little ironic that Mother Nature took out a billboard prompting people to fight against the EPA in order to keep coal jobs in tact.
The steel support posts of the billboard were twisted and bent.
