Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

They got me still here at WalMart, close on to 5 hours after I arrived. WalMart takes forever to unload pallets, and this trailer was floor loaded. I may have to file a change-of-address form.

In any case, we'll probably see what Lee's truck stop has to offer. Never been there, but it's only a couple miles up the road.

EDIT: Google satellite view says that Lee's itself doesn't really have a restaurant, but it is next door to a McDonald's. IHOP sounds pretty good in comparison, and I will probably mosey back up the road to Davy Crockett.

 

Or you could ride a little farther down that road to Yoder’s Country Market. They have truck parking and really good food.

 

Exactly what I would do. Pancakes rule.

 

I didnt know Yoders had truck parking. Thanks for the info. Not that I need it any more though....

 

They did last I was that way. Which has been quite a while. At least 2 1/2 years. It is a little steep to get in and out, though. But, the food was awesome!

 

I plan on taking a bike (Harley Davidson) ride over there this Spring to check it out.

 

Way better than that old Daisey Duke's Truck Stop.

 

Decided to drop down 44 to 40 to avoid Vail and chain laws going to Vegas. Ill chain up when I got to but if I can go around I will, lol! Hate winter cold, makes all my joints and shoulders hurt plus my back with all that titanium the Government put in me. All that infantry stuff destroyed my joints. I tell younger folks to forget combat arms and kicking in doors and get a good technical job if they think about signing the dotted line. Im only 44 and feel 64, lol!

 

Just wait until your 64....

 

Then Ill prob feel like 104, . My mom keeps telling me to push for 100 percent through VA since Im 90 percent rated but told her Im trying to hold out snd work long as I can before having to go there.
