    It appears that you have a major safety violations displayed in that photo.
    Toxic chemicals mixed with hazardous substances stored with and near food stuffs and other consumables for both human and animal consumption.

    Some magic of 9th gear "turned around" had a lot to do with it in rolling country.

    But Potts Camp, MS had the first "Beer Barn".Right downtown on old 78,
    convenient to the Memphis Hardwood Sawmill. Working man's friend.

    Ha Ha... In the small loan business years ago it was HHG on the account card but referred to among the personnel as "Sticks". Like in phone call to collect past due payment, "Do not make it necessary for us to come out and pick up those old sticks, but come pay."
    Really effective if it was the wife and she had a very nice dining room suite.

    Seems truck drivers aren't the only tired people. The donut lady overslept this morning. That meant I got warm perfect donuts today. Then I hit 6 green lights on my way to load, and when I got there, the loading tunnel was empty, so I got in and out in 35 minutes. Only 300 lbs short of my max gross, and all my weights were good. And no potato salad in sight. Happy Friday!

    No. They don’t advertise anymore, you gotta get off 78/I-22 at Potts camp exit, going South make a right, go to T and it’s there at old 78 intersection

    Old saying..."Lost the cherry, so can now get on with the enjoyment."
    You guys should have run for a nickel a LOADED mile when most state speed limits were 45.
    Loose record keeping in those days allowed us to prosper.
