In a tiny town on a lonely stretch of western highway, a glowing neon drugstore sign beckons as cars and loaded semi-trucks thunder past. A few travelers stop - maybe they're wondering about the vintage soda fountain visible through the window.

Inside, they find a time capsule over 100 years in the making. Jeff Whittington has this report for the Mountain West News Bureau.

My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.
