Parked Here for the Night

it is a large BARNEY

 

Run into Indiana grab I65s into Indy. At this point 2 ways to go.

*preferred way...20 miles longer I believe.

Run 70E pick up US35 in Dayton all the way into hurricane WV. Pick up I64 and run I77 into NC pick up I74 right across the border into Asheboro

or you could run I74 out of Indy to the 275 loop on then Kentucky side and pick up Ky-9 and run in to I64 in Grayson KY. ALthough shorter it takes a little more time.

You should be able to make Wytheville VA at the I77/81 split either way where there is plenty of parking. TA....2 Flying J's I believe a Wilco also.

Your weight will be a factor on how good of time you make on 77. Otherwise you may have to park at Beckley plaza. Parking is pretty scarce on 77

 

+1 on Fat Daddy's preferred way

 

And now I am here...



Didn't feel good staying at that rest area... not after that encounter with the officer... Couldn't sleep well last night thinking about him coming back...
Talked to another driver who was at the rest area last night... officer never knocked on his door...

Will start my shift at 5:00... fuel and gooooooo...... Will park in TN tomorrow evening...

 

Doing a restart swift terminal in columbus im a newbie and miserably missing my car at home to get a decent plate of vegetables. Oh well.

 

don't sweat it man. you will find the places that serve good home cookin. just keep your eyes and ears open. welcome to the wonderful world of trucking.

 

Swift terminal.... at least they must have a restroom with showers, a "kitchen" area with sink, microwave.... right? Can't you bobtail somewhere for a meal? Don't know your co. policies... but that should not disturb your reset... GOOD LUCK MAN! YEAH, welcome to trucking...

 

Hey, I found this location on Google satellite... Looks like truck parking... I wonder if one has to be a customer at one of those restaurants to park there... Well... I guess I could call them and ask...



It's at 13005 South Freeway, Burleson, TX


Also found a Hobby Lobby and a Walmart store nearby on TX-174.... If they allow trucks parking there overnight, that might be better for me than congested Love's on exit 40...

 

Rocks, according to this site that Walmart does not allow overnight parking

Now take that with a grain of salt because the Walmart in Sealy, Tx is also on that list and they do have signs posted all over but their is usually 10-15 trucks there a night.

However on google satellite I did not see any trucks parked except the one in the dock

 

What would we do without the internet ? Lol
