I once stopped at a gas station in Alabama, years ago on a road trip. Probably a fine little place (Eutaw...or something like that). But, I walked in...saw all the stuffed dead animals and a creepy guy in overalls behind the counter and just turned around and walked out. I think there was also a stuffed rabbitbear and squirrelgator, etc.

Got back in my car and went on to a larger gas station somewhere else. When I have to travel quite a bit, I try to hit the larger areas for gas stops, etc.

I'm sure there are good people, everywhere. But, every once in awhile...you get to thinking. Please don't let my car stop HERE!
