Our trek north will be delayed by a few days. My sister, Sherry, lives in the greater Dallas/Fort Worth area and we will be staying with her for a bit. She has graciously invited us to stay in her home so we will have a few day’s reprieve from living in a 100 square foot space, with its navy-style showers and it’s limited water and electricity supply.
Our first stop on the way to Sherry’s was the Buc-ee’s gas station just north of Fort Worth. We were told that we had to stop at Buc-ee’s to experience it. I’ve seen the signs along the freeway on just about every trip to the South, so we stopped here because we were encouraged to.
I didn’t get any fuel here because I didn’t really need any, but we strolled the store for a bit. This is a massive store that would have done a mall proud. And full of beaver-themed merchandise, particularly snacks. We were told to get the beaver nuggets.
Not to be outdone by any other Texas-themed store, this place had lots of Texas kitsch that you could bring home.
We arrived at Sherry’s just before lunch, probably looking like some sort of trailer-trash, parking our RV on her street. We spent the rest of the day catching up.
