    Totally different times back then. Ran cross country for decades, knew where I'd be every night,no matter how long it took. Parking not a problem, good food, and could usually get a beer if I wanted, after a long days work. Not the computer driven rat race of current times.

    Blackjack55; Nowadays when I stop at the J, I’ll have 2 roller dogs for a quick lunch and be on the road again.

    Other times I will sit in the restaurant and have real food. ;)
