Your size button seemed broken, so I fixed it for you. You're welcome. :P

 

This lifestyle is a funny business. I mean this job is a . .

I'm in a hotel in Springfield, MO, so I don't have my logs but I was in Sidney, NE, a few days or weeks ago . .

. . and stayed at the Walmart SC. I bought a pillow and two pillow cases. I like the pillow. The pillow cases are so coarse, they've chafed through my skin and soft tissue, so now my ear canal and jaw are exposed. And I drools a bit. There was no thread count or grit on the package.

Am I at risk of infection? Is there a $4 prescription that will heal this condition?

 

I always liked the 49er in Kentucky. The food may not have been the best ever, and the facilities were certainly lacking, but I liked the people and the atmosphere there, and the fact that they offered free showers.
There were a few small truck stops I liked, but, to be honest, I really don't remember too many of them. I can recall that there was one I really liked somewhere along US 20, which I'd always stop at whenever I had a load which wasn't permitted on the toll road. And the truck stop at the bottom of the Colorado Gap near Vale was another one I really liked.
For the most part, though, I just prepared my own meals, which, considering my lack of culinary skills, typically consisted of nothing more than sandwiches, or perhaps some canned food on occasion. I made it a point to stop for a sit-down meal at least once a week, and, out of the large chains, TA would usually be my choice for this. There was one chain in Ontario, but the name of it eludes me. Driving along the Queen Elizabeth on my way from London or somewhere in that area as I was proceeding towards Buffalo, it was along there somewhere. They made a hamburger which I really liked.. it was topped with some sort of bacon, and it always suited me just fine. I really don't remember the name of the place, though. Maybe it was Husky, but I don't think it was.
Come to think of it, why the hell am I talking about truck stops? I eat at the home 20 every night now. Screw those places! :P

 

 

Breakfast buffet at FJ is $7.00......They'll make you fresh eggs from the kitchen if you don't want the scrambled from the horse trough......Same with pancakes and toast....I try to get a booth near the coffee station so I can get my own refills......Self service=no tip....

 

For those of you that get to follow I-94 in WI, try stopping in at one of the "KWIK TRIP" truck stops, like at Tomah, WI, and enjoy the $3.99 breakfast buffet. Otherwise, you'll have to find some of the independant little "Mom and Pop" truck stops... Like WILDERNESS CROSSING, or ABBEYLAND TRUCK STOP, or "51 TRUCK STOP" in the central Wisconsin area. No, I won't say they are inexpensive anymore, but the food is actually prepared on-site.

Cheap meals became a thing of the past when fuel prices went up... Cost of delivery.

 

As long as we have each others' back, it's all good Rev! :twisted: :lol:

 

Ranks right up there with the "hot dog shaped Cheeseburger" rolling on the grill at Pilot. If you can get past the fact that it looks like a fresh turd, it is actually fairly tasty when smothered in about 1/2 gallon of ketchup.

I think that it may well be the Baby Ruth bar from the Caddyshack pool. Back to haunt us again.

 

They just don't look very tasty in the hot case. I have seen some drivers eating them but those guys just looked hungry.

 

Ever wonder how many of those guys you see retching over the guardrail, or
squatting between drive tires are recent victims of the Flying J "hot food case." I bet that a book could be started on the subject. Yuch!!!
