    Up here in Red Bay slowly getting unloaded. The plus side is Kudzu Country has played Buck Owens, Willie Nelson, Conway Twitty and John Denver so far.

    I can't complain too much.

    @snowman_w900 Did you know the old grease spoon behind the L/O tire shop in Anna Ohio is all fixed up and now a bar/rest! Food was decent. 6am/2am. Beer cold.

    You know, I heard it was back going again but hadn't stopped in. Last time I was in there was a few years ago. Cant remember what it was called then.

    I was wondering if it was any count. Last I heard towel heads bought it and ran it out of business. I have to stop in and try it.

    The towel heads still have fuel stop. But its Joes place 2 out back. And joes blonde daughter is very pleasant. Food was ok. Its fixed up very nice amd clean. Unlike the marathon close to the exit. That place is worse than I recall. Used to by fuel there.

    Speaking of places. We all know the TA at Baltimore sucks. We all know better than to stay there, but sometimes it's the only option.

    Last night, I went to bed early bout 730-8. I woke up bout 2am, so I decided to get up and take a 10-100. Well, before I could get my boots on, heres comes a junkie panhandler. Sees me in the drivers seat. DAM IT!

    so he comes over. I pretend no to see him as I'm putting my boots on. So he knocked on my door. I act surprised and roll my window down. Heres what I hear:

    "Hey sir, PLEASE...do you have a few extra dollars??? I mean just 80 cents even....I just need gas for my crippled wifes car so we can keep going...."

    Well feeling pretty good and rested and already feeling like a total smartasss....I started talkin in an unknown language. A language I just made up on the go.

    "Ahhh....dahuhgadeed mahhnad. Untaddae, gunhinded." That was my response. I don't know if I spelled it correctly, but since I made it up, I guess right.

    He says: " yo, do you have extra money? MONEY....YOU KNOW YOU BUY THINGS WITH. M O N E Y???"

    me: "ohhhh...hafundedede jahgaoon sawoogy unna matgadunna....choooga gunwatcha."

    Then I hold up a Lemon Lime Gatorade bottle that was unopened, nod my head and tried to hand it to him like I thought he was saying he was thirsty. He got aggravated and said "never fuxkin mind dude...." and walks away dissatisfied.

    I wasn't bothered the rest of the night.
