We left Savannah early on Friday morning so we could be past downtown Atlanta before their afternoon rush hour.\u00a0 Only rest stop I could find for the whole trip was closed for construction, so we used fuel stations to walk the pups and ourselves.<\/p>\n
I had never stopped at a Loves truck stop before so it was a learning experience.\u00a0 First thing is you cannot pay at the pump with a credit card, you must go inside the store.\u00a0\u00a0 They appear to have two pumps for each bay,\u00a0 but I was not sure how you made the other pump work as there wasn’t any controls.\u00a0 I have filler caps on both sides, so I could have used both had I been able to get it to work.\u00a0\u00a0 As it was, those massive diesel nozzles on the pump filled my tank very quickly just using one of them.\u00a0 [Walking the dogs over to a tiny bit of grass\/weeds was scary in between those huge trucks making very loud noises, but the pups did OK, just a little skitterish!]<\/p>\n
We camped overnight in a pull -thru at a place called Cane Creek RV campground in Heflin, Al, just over the border from Georgia.\u00a0 Really nice campground a couple miles from the interstate.\u00a0 Real quiet there.\u00a0\u00a0 We wanted to get to Red Bay early to have a better chance at getting an RV site at the Tiffin Service Center as it’s first come first served.\u00a0 No reservations.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We left there before 8am in an attempt to make that happen.<\/p>\n
By the way, Hurricane Nate was heading for Alabama that weekend.\u00a0 We were not sure what Sunday was going to bring our way!<\/p>\n
