Highway Life - Sleeping in the Slow Lane and Praise for Truck Washes

Driving While Blind

When one drives a lot, you see some strange things  ... Like the Clampetts moving or testing the aerodynamics of mattresses.   I have to think that the person driving the car might be sleeping near the highway tonight, or at least, searching for a bed near the asphalt at some point during the day ...   


Dirty Scooter ... flying mud
Motorhome Wash 

Further down the road, I finally found a truck wash ... operated by Blue Beacon.  Here is a list of their locations.   These are great huge facilities and a real plus to keep things clean after a nasty shower and gritty road conditions !

The scooter had taken a beating with the back wash and winds swirling up behind the coach... a great opportunity for a bath.  The wash costs about $40 US ... so it isn't cheap, but try that on quarters sometime ... if you could even find a place to get the rig into !

Notice the roof mounted spray bars above the coach.  Three or four gentlemen scrub the coach down and you are back on the road in about 20 minutes.   Nicely done guys !





Cheers
