    My favorite viewing spot only has the streetlight of a farm about 1/4 of a mile away. You can see the light domes of all the surrounding communities on the horizon. The only creepy part is that it is at the edge of one of those country cemeteries that you find in the middle of nowhere along country roads. Living in the country is a pain as an o/o since it is a donut hole for freight, but it is nice that my daughter can walk, or ride a bike to school without fear. I still live in a place you can leave your car running in winter to go into the local DG and it will be there when you come out. I also live in a town where everyone knows what DG stands for.

    WiTrucker29 you are correct, however please reply in the form of a question. Would you like to try trucking company acronyms for $500?

    If you want sad, there are girls in my town that their life's ambition is to work at the local DG. Nothing like setting your sights low.

    Just so you don't miss the entrance there is a Plywood business on the left and a small apartment complex on the right. Entrance to Roehl is immediately after the plywood gate.
