Notes from the road:
1. I passed a conspicuously large number of unmarked rigs on the road from "Provo, UT?" After I passed 3, and noticed 3 more gassing up at the J, I thought, "are those trucks filled with bible-thumping, underwear-wearing Mormon Romney minions?" Hmm... just a personal conspiracy theory I thought I'd float...
2. Got lost after leaving this spooky/perfect gated compound by the name of "The Villages" and ended up in Coleman, FL, home of the Coleman Correctional Facility:
I felt much more comfortable in Coleman, FL than in the Villages, FL. This cool song playing on XM added to the ambiance of a lost afternoon at twilight on FL SR 301.
Yes, I truly felt at home at Flying Js. It satisfied so many wants and needs in one fell swoop. I was curious about the truckers' dorms and showers and if tripadvisor.com had ratings for these services. Do you think Flying Js may someday carry yoga pants and belly dancer belts for Zumba, or offer massages for weary truckers?

No to the yoga pants. No to Zumba belts.
ReplyDeleteYes to Sans a Belt slacks.
Are you and Kip considering an extended stay at the J? It would most certainly appeal to Kip's frugality...plus your constant need for caloric intake.
Maybe if you stopped exercising so much you wouldn't need to refuel constantly. Just sayin...
Thought you'd get a kick out of this - it's about The Villages http://www.thevillagesfloridabook.com/cbs-sunday-morning-golf-carts/
