Holiday

Today was warm and sunny. It seemed like a good day to dewinterize my van. So we drove it out to Rogers, Minnesota, where there are free dump and fill facilities at:

Cabelas

We turned in behind Cabela’s at the sign for truck/RV/bus parking:

and saw this:

Cabela's trucks

And were reminded that holiday parking for trucks around here is at a premium.

On we went to the faucet first just to be sure:

no water

No water yet. Too early in the season apparently.

So we didn’t get that task taken care of today.

Since our daughter has been driving OTR I have become more aware of truck parking. So on our way through Roger’s I checked around.

At TA, the official truck stop, they were parked every which way:

At Denny’s there were several trucks when we stopped for lunch on our way to Cabela’s and they were all still there when we left:

Across the street at the Holiday station there were a few more:

I sure am glad we only had to park the van in Rogers today.

TTYL,

  1. Aaaaah…. Seasonal water…. What better reminder of our life in Wisconsin!

    We too don’t travel on the shoulders of holidays — too much congestion and why should we. We don’t HAVE to be back at work after the holiday!

    That thing about truck parking… It’s just another sign of social values. I drove OTR in the 70’s and 80’s and drivers seemed a lot more courteous to one another, Specially when the weather was bad, but most of the time really. Then again, RV’ers can be as bad as the trucks (and worse) which is why I don’t blame it on the truckers. It’s really a social thing. IMHO

    You’ll be able to do your Spring thing soon enough my friend. Hang in there!
