    I once stopped at a Love's and the showers were out of order due to a down hot water heater.

    I said "I lived in a house with a teenager and her mother who took forever to get ready You don't think I learned to take cold showers?"

    Woke up this morning and I still had a hood and the showers were working. It's the little things that make me happy. Onward to Connecticut.

    I can't tell you how many times I waited to go eat dinner just because I wanted to make sure I would still have mirrors (or a hood, fender, bumper, etc) when I came back out later.

    Dang its gonna be a boring day . I am trying to figure if I want to leave and head closer , i'm only 200 miles away .
    I know I have to get fuel at TA in west Virginia , but I really dont want to park there over night . Lol
    but on the upside if I do I can stop by at Cabelas and kill a few hrs shopping and looking at man things :biggrin_25523:

    Normally I would use this as a reset , but I will gain back enough hrs to get me through till its time to go home .
    welp guess i'll have some coffee and decide after that .
    If I had a place for a trailer I would have went home for tonight...
