A Trucker's Home Away from Home...

"Established in 1928 at the intersection of U.S. Route 66 and Route 136 in McLean, Illinois, Dixie Truckers Home is the oldest truck stop in America. Founded by a partnership between J.P. Walters and John Geske, Dixie Truckers Home stood for southern hospitality.  Walters wanted truckers to know they had a home away from home."

Dixie's Truck Stop was so full last night - there was not a single space available...

We stopped at Old Bridge for lunch and marveled at this beautiful farming area.  It is amasing how neat and tidy these farms are kept!!!
