This is the best part about road trips! Check out other travelers, visit the restrooms, buy some deep fried food warmed under lights, or something with lots of corn syrup in it. I also love the smell of the gas when you are filling up, its exhilarating, like being at the top of the mountain. I love it when you see huge RV's with old, retired fat people in them at the gas station, those people are living the life. Sometimes the old lady will have a little dog. Or sometimes they will have department store bikes with dual shocks.
