I got off I-40 on the east side of Asheville at the Biltmore exit and went to a McDonald's for a break. Lots of "Forever Lights" and traffic, but this was the fanciest McDonald's I've ever been in. It was three stories high, had columns, parque floors, plants, and even a player piano in the corner. Definitely worth a stop if you're ever in the area.
I also stopped to eat bbq at Butch's BBQ and Breakfast in Morganton. It was alright barbecue, but I've had better.
Got gas around Burlington, which is usually the cheapest along I-40. Gas in Asheville is usually higher.
I was happy to get around the Durham-Raleigh traffic hassle with just one stop near RDU airport where there was a lot of road construction. After about a mile crawl, it was smooth sailing despite getting into the early part of rush hour.
I love the new US-70 bypass around Clayton as it saves a real lot of time.
Arrived at Goldsboro about 5 pm.
Finally at Mom's. --RoadDog
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
