In WW2 they used to say: " Moose Lips Sink Ships " ........ or was that ......... well ...... whatever .... Maybe from now on your 'end of posting' signature should be: ( Fast Forward to 0:51 !!! ) Mmmmwwwaahhhhhh !
I think I can .... I think I can ..... NO I CAN'T !! We're hopelessly OFF TOPIC ..... but it's been quite a trip so far !!
Years ago ..... and I mean YEARS ago ... I always used to stop in Beto Junction, KA. There was a dirt lot, some pumps, a small Ma and Pa diner, and an amazing bakery ! It wasn't even on the map. Besides that, there was a Church and a few houses. Anytime I was on the 35, I stopped there and had a good meal, a great sleep, and loaded up on baked goods. Some years back someone told me there was a TA or something there now ...... sigh ...........
A plate of Beto Junction biscuits and gravy was always a must for me back in the good old days. It was one of the only decent stops between TX and points north running 75.
heres a few in Arizona, California, Oregon and Nevada http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/traffops/trucks/routes/truck-stops.htm
Truck Stop Trivia Challenge: Let's see who can explain the history around 'BETO Junction' ? I know everyone is just going to Google it ...... but at least maybe someone will get an education out of it ! Hint ! Beto Junction is not really a place at all ! Cut and paste answers don't count towards the free coffee prize ...... if you're taking a load close to my place, the prize becomes : A moose sausage and egg breakfast with all the trimmins' on my deck !
