    So going to be dropping a load near Winchester VA near midnight tonight I see a couple small truck stops and a pilot. Anyone know of any good places to spend my 10 around there? I should have a few hours on my clock left but may not know my next pickup till morning

    Parking is difficult to say the least that time of night in Winchester. If you run 81 s to 66 there is a truck only rest area that will have available parking. About 15 miles away from Winchester.

    Does your company reimburse parking fees? Reserve a spot at that god awful Flying J on the WV border.

    If not, try the Walmart on the west side of Winchester. Address is 501 Walmart Dr. Call them first to make sure they allow it!

    Who do you drive for? I know my company has a drop lot there. Doubt you could use it, but if you're a great big pumpkin, that should be useful

    I've always been able to find an open spot at the Pilot there. That place is so tight that most drivers would rather park on the side street than try to back into an open spot.

    Check Google Earth - There are quite a few spots (lots of industrial parks) Flying J is a mad house! Little Mom and Pop truck stop in Clear Brook on U.S. 11 at the railroad crossing. Rt. 7 - Rt. 340 are good spots as well.

    And that's why I'll be stopping in Harrisonburg tonight instead of taking this relay all the way there.
