if that is the one i am thinking of it is well off the road. is that exit 90/92? the sign is not ver good either. if ou were just shopping there is a small town piggly wiggly in blacksburg.

columbia j? parked there last nite in front. not a large lot and lots of late nite parts swapping going on behind the rv parking.

oh yuck...Columbia J parking sux...bad area....

There is a Wallys...ONE exit south of 40 off I-26....that is open 24hrs...the other 2 Wallys in Columbia close at Midnight.

Found a laundromat up the road, so we'll get that done and maybe see a few of the sights. All seems to be within a few miles of us.

You got two packing plants next door to each other what more could you possibly want? AHHHHHHHHHH the smell of sun cooked offal wafting from an open end dump trailer.

Me, I've got a very early a.m. drop in OVM's back yard and then straight north to Jamestown.

Well hubby was shopping for a new laptop so we had to shop Walmart. We are at the Columbia J, in the truck lot. Normally we would park in the RV area (unless it's marked no trucks or they kick us out) but their front lot is so small I decided to leave it to the RV's. And lordy it's HOT down here!!

What's Wrong with your GPS ?

I-70 : 2206
I-80 : 2256
I-40 : 2300

Spending the night @ home ?
Priceless...

Not trying to beet a dead horse here...just for next time ,

 

[usafk9]

That consignee is 2 miles from my house, Dennis. They used to be the largest employer in the county, but recently eliminated most of their 2nd shift.

I'm fairly certain we're talking about the same place.

 

[chefdennis]

Moose, i routed myself so i could "play" on as much of rt 66 as i could,,,so i can't blame the gps

Aj, the consignee used to be acculite, back on peach rd,,,,from what i saw, they have cut alot of production ....nothing was goin on at all no more then 10 people in the place,....

[/QUOTE]This is a perfect example of why I went from a s/t to a van. The dispatchers have absolutely no idea how much it costs to operate the different types of vehicles out here.But I am at the house, waiting for a load, so I can go to work and have a break from the yard work.

 

[layoutshooter]

We delivered this morning and now are sitting at the Pilot on I64 east of Richmond. Waiting for that wonderful "BEEP" Only one offer today, it REALLY sucked so here we sit.
