Another One Bites The Dust

Don't Mess WIth Texas



Trucker poet sent this pic back from a State of Texas rest area where it is apparently too much of a tax burdent to provide toilet seats anymore.

Pumpkin Problems

A cautionary tale from Truckerpoet:




Pumpkin Problems


Driving down the interstate, kind’a tired, cause it was late.
My foot was lying on the floor, 68 not one mile more.
Then a terrible noise, it all happened so fast
Cold air rushing in, I was covered with glass.
I thought I’d been shot, had no clue what went wrong
Till I pulled to the roadside, and turned the lights on.
Pieces of pumpkin, were all over the place
And I now felt the glass, in my arm and my face.
I jumped from the truck, to wash out my eyes
And saw what had happened, much to my surprise
Some bastards had dropped one, from a bridge overpass
My 45th birthday, was almost my last

The Richmond TA Travel Center located at Exit 89 and I-95 in Virginia Rates 3 Stars

The Richmond TA Travel Center located at Exit 89 and I-95 in Virginia has LOTS of parking, a repair shop, a Cat Scale and yes even an Asian Massage. They don’t have clean restrooms or reasonably priced food or store items. Truckerpoet says a Twinkie and a small milk set him back $3.85. If you’re just looking for a place to park your RV / Semi you’ll find it here but don’t expect any hook-ups because Idle-Air doesn’t live here either. Truckerpoet says Three Stars.




Don't forget your wallet if you're going to eat here!





That's right. This T/A does offer an Asian Massage for you truckers in need of a back rub.







The restrooms at this TA need some attention.
