      If memory serves, this is Breezewood, PA; about the middle of the state of Pennsylvania, along the PA turnpike. It’s an easy on/off between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia that doesn’t sell you convenience food at turnpike rest stop captive prices.

      Anyway, central to west PA is Appalachian mountains, and this part of Breezewood is at the bottom of a valley. The sign is tall so you can see it east and westbound from the turnpike.

      I don’t know why I shared this information.

        I’m glad you did. From my perspective, this could have been any exit off I-25 from Denver to Albuquerque.

        Glad to know we’re all in the same boat.

        Also, we should fix the boat.

        Listened to this again the other day after not hearing it for a while and it still hits so hard for me.

        Fair enough. I’d still rather have well-maintained public restrooms or at least pay toilets with discreet signage on the roads. This monstrosity is just luring desperate travelers to a potential staff infection.
