Sapp Bros 101 | Truckers Could do with Morning Caffeine |
W
hile planning my trip to Council Bluffs, I read about water towers along the way that are shaped like giant coffee pots intended as roadside attractions. Most famously, Sapp Brother's operates a chain of about 15 truck stops along interstate highways featuring distinctive red and white coffee pot water towers as iconic identifiers. It turns out that one of these curiosities was located within a mile of my hotel, so I was able to photograph it on several occasions under various weather conditions. This image was captured very early in the morning as the sun broke the horizon and truckers had begun to stir.
