A social media post of a so-called "Baby Buc-ee's" is lighting up the internet.

Texas Rep. Brooks Landgraf (R-Odessa) is circulating photos of a far west Texas art installation which amounts to a small, abandoned phone-line service shed with the iconic Buc-ee's sign and Beaver logo across it.

The structure is on a lonely road about 25 miles east of Marathon in Brewster County. Landgraf said his constituents were peppering him with questions about his Facebook post with pictures of the Baby Buc-ee's.

He said he spoke with Buc-ee's co-founder "Beaver" Aplin about it, saying one of the famous convenience stores would be welcomed with open arms in West Texas. But the company apparently has no plans to expand that way.

No one seems to know who built the Baby Buc-ee's in Landgraf's pictures.
