    It's a chilly but it beats the weather we're having in the Midwest.

    Camping at the T&A in Laffy Lusiana.

    I recently made the executive decision to switch to a new fuel card deal. This one favors TA/Petro, which I am a big fan of, along with saving lots more on fuel than with the old one. So I'm getting re-introduced to them one stop at a time. The old card was saving good at TA/Petro until early last year. After that, I only would go there if I needed to pay for a shower or get a reserved parking space for 0-dark-thirty arrival.

    I did do a double stop on the way down yesterday though. The thing they call a food counter in the Shorter, AL Petro had nothing appetizing about it. So I moved to the Hope Hull J for a prime rib sandwich at Denny's and a 10% discount.

    A quick AM drop near here for tomorrow, then on to Houston. Not sure if I'm going to suffer the Love's/Pilot dump near my delivery (NE Houston) Thu morning, or suck up a little fuel cost and park in Baytown.

    Stopped at the Love's in West Memphis. Grabbed one of two spots left (no time to be picky), did my post trip and went inside to wait (of course) for a much needed shower. I'll be back in El Paso before I really start to stink again, lmao! :)
