Napa Auto Parts in Freeport, Maine - Weathervane Wednesday

 Today's weathervane was photographed on Route 1, Freeport, Maine. 

There is a short section of US Route 1 in Freeport, Maine loaded with fun weathervanes.  The next time you are visiting, slow down and enjoy looking at the weathervanes in Freeport!

This weathervane can be found above the cupola on the NAPA Auto Parts building on the west side of US Route 1, squeezed in between Route 1 and Route 95.  It is a two dimensional weathervane of a colorful pickup truck with the NAPA logo on the door. This weathervane is small, but easy to see because it is a small one floor building, and no trees to block the view. Colorful weathervanes are rare, so this is not only a fun find, but it is easy to spot.  

Trivia:  NAPA is an acronym for National Automotive Parts Association, founded in 1925. 

Are there any other NAPA stores with similar weathervanes?

For the truly curious:
