    I’m sitting off the freeway. A rest stop “service center”. Just a little short of Dayville. Want to sit here till tonight. All these signs of two hour parking. Hope I don’t get any trouble?
    I could see on satellite. There’s a large shopping area. One exit short of mine. Looks plenty good for parking out of the way. Or behind a store.
    I’ll probably be coming back. This is a regular delivery for us. Especially since so far. My only tolls are into Conn. Avoided all the others.

    This is bad. GPS brings up two truck stops. Up on i84 About 23 miles away. But says it takes 50 something minutes to get there. Doh!

    I could have missed this toll. From NY to here. But it would have turned a 178 mile trip into 377 miles. No way.

    I have no idea where I’m going to pickup after NH. I’ll find out when I’m empty. Could be as far as Joisey.

    If I remember correctly, there is a Lowe’s very close to you, and I have parked there before without any problems.
