    They must have bought out the Weed Travel Center, It's got a great view of the Black Butte Mountain

    Are we taking bets as to how long it will take to turn into a dump?

    Not that I know anything about anything, but my first impression is why?

    There seams to be a fair amount of parking in the area and you're just a hop skip and a jump from Oregon fuel prices.

    Oh boy. Another pilot. Oh boy,another Subway. Oh boy another arcade but no drivers lounge or seats to be found. How exciting,another cookie cutter truckstop. At least its more parking spaces i guess. My new Tennessee Governor really kows how to put new and exciting truckstops out there.

    Good. I tried to park there once, but left once I realized the owners wanted twenty bucks a truck to park. Screw that. I wasn't about to pay for parking out in the sticks.

    A guy named Abner Weed. He owned a lumber mill in the area back in the 1800's.

    I know exactly what you mean. I can't even stand the smell of their "herb" bread baking when I walk in the door. Immediate appetite killer.:biggrin_2555:
