    Well, if they see someone in the seat, then you can pretty much expect to be propositioned for something or another "since your there and available". But seriously, you'll run across more wanting to bum money off you "for gas", than you'll find lot lizards

    Right. She didn't even get the chance to knock I was looking down at my phone saw her coming nodded my head no she took off quick going right down the line of trucks.

    There was a guy selling cds too outside the door by the fuel island hit me up coming out from my shower I just kept it moving.

    Definitely a lifestyle change for me out here but I like it so far.

    You want to keep the riff-raff away, close the cab curtains up front if you have them and want to sit up front and not in the sleeper. Funny, I haven't seen a lot lizard in years, I guess I am doing something right. LOL!

    It's a large Petro and I'm close to the front and plenty of lights. Suprised we found a spot when we got here around 9pm last night. I don't let anyone in.
