    Article on OOIDA says Woodland, Wa. I 5 exit 22.

    Woodland High School, along Washington State’s section of Interstate 5 (exit 22) opened not only their parking lot, but the bathrooms and showers inside the school to weary drivers at noon on March 24. The facility intends to remain open seven days a week for the foreseeable future. The location is right next to a Walmart Supercenter. Volunteers within the school district are working with local restaurants to accommodate the drivers with hot food.

    When did Dave have a stroke?
    This could explain a lot.

    Too bad our freight agents don't see it that way.

    That far north on 5 I think it'd be more like exit 522.

    I hope to god they have a janitor with the appropriate cleaning fluids to sanitize the place.

    One of my more memorable showers was at the Ohio rest area with human blood on the floor of the stall from a IV drug user probably within the hour shooting up before I came along.

    It took me a long time plus several tests at my home doctor to ensure that I did not pick up anything from that cleanup prior to shower. I know how to clean a stall. But not potentially infectious pathogens from blood.

    If it was Woodland, Ca. it would be somewhere around 535- 540. I worked for the Target DC there for 6 years back from 87-93, but Cali didn't have any exits numbers up back then.

    Well not like a highly touted magazine of journalism like OOIDA could be off base.
