Trucker Path shows, no showers. Nice location to stage or wait out traffic. We landed in Monee, IL small but good parking for a van, 5 showers.

Forgot to share what keeping an aging sprinter is like. 2 hour job became 8 including all 4 brakes frozen + e brake...time for that after winter check-up if you haven't already...note the water pouring from the front shock
This last pic shows how I caught the undercoat on fire with the torch removing that really rusty bolt. If a salesman had shown up with papers for a 2017/18 van I would have signed right there

Yeah, no showers here. Knew that coming in, so I was prepared. But boy, does their Internet fly.

For those that don't know, there is a new Loves truck stop going in across from the Pilot in Circleville Ohio on 23. Loves isn't my favorite place but this looks like a good addition for a clean building when needed. Will also have a I-hop resturant inside. The Loves appears to be nearing completion real soon. Never have been a fan of this Pilot in Circleville either.
Idiot is more like it. Still do t know how it happened. Guess I ha e a ghost in the phone
Cruises are great, going on another on on May 6th...Carnival Vista...Grand Turk, La Romana (Dominican Republic), Aruba, and Curacao.
Best bang for the buck and there is so much to do. And you don't just sit on the ship in a beach chair, unless that's what you want to do. Visit the ports, explore.
This is the newest ship and we have a Spa Balcony (one of the most expensive other than a suite) and for 8 days it was about $1500 per person...could have done an inside for about $750 per person or less.

Sorry I don't explore either ... no interest in island hopping.. that means a lot of walking and window shopping . One beach looks like the other and 1 palm tree they are all alike .... $3,000 plus whatever you buy ...plus the expense of getting to departure point... probably up to $4,000k for what again?
I'd rather go bowling.... lol
Hope you have a blast tho.... enjoy!
Oh I definitely will...to each his own. For me traveling all over the US for work since I started driving in 1995 means I like to leave the US for vacation.

Been everywhere, done everything huh? Maybe you ARE ready to retire
Reminds me of my first trip to Texas. I was expecting nothing but cactus and tumble weeds.
1st trip all I saw was pine trees. I thought, this looks just like Michigan
not even...just no interest....let alone the 6-8,000$$ for 8 days...holy moly...
Drove by there Friday, looked good so may try it on another trip. How was the noise, sense of security at night?
Got to I-88 and saw trooper behind pulled over semi, figured speeder got caught, then saw trooper in cab digging at something, figured drug search by driver's seat, then as I passed I saw trooper apparently trying to get driver's t-shirt off or opened. Driver slumped back in seat, blood all over his shirt. Learned later that driver was shot, perhaps in road rage nonsense, he had time to pull over before bleeding out, pronounced dead at hospital. Scary what goes on out there, on top of usual crazy drivers and bad weather. This was close to that Pilot, but had nothing to do with it.

cold dreary and sprinkling rain to wake up to..with the weatherman hissing that word snow in his forcast.. Trying really hard to be cheery but I'm day dreaming about a warm island with waves tickling my feet!
