    I don't think I've ever seen one of those before. That truck stop wasn't even knew when I was a deputy in Inyo County. But there was a decent (sort of) restaurant up the road a piece, with just a bit of truck parking. Ranch House Cafe in Olancha.
    OBTW, I've seen that Welcome To Inyo County sign "decorated" a few times. "Welcome to YOYO County"
    "Welcome To Inyo County" and posted across it, "Come on vacation, leave on probation."
    "Welcome To Inyo County now go home".
    Welcome To Inyo County Bring Money.

    Not a whole lot of activity for kids in Pearsonville. Wonder if the speedway is still there...
    Never mind, just Googled it, and it closed in 2000.

    Took a 10 hr brk a tad north of this truck stop in a rest area a few months back, had a chat with one of the member's of the maint crew on site. Can't recall the exact name at the moment but he mentioned he was active with some thing like the Demolition Derby in the area.

    Seen a few hundred elk near independence a few years ago bedded down on the west side of 395. haven't seen em since.

    I had forgotten about the rest stop w/C store at Coso Jct. (Don't know why there is a "Jct." in that name, 'cause there isn't much of a "Jct" there. Road to the east goes to a geothermal plant. I believe the road to the west is pretty much just an access road for the aqueduct.
