Reynoldsburg, Ohio: Red Roof Inn


I am checked into the hotel, even though it says truck parking in the guide, it really doesn't have any. I dropped my trailer in the local yard about fifteen minutes away from here as a precaution, and it turned out to be a good one. Even bobtail my truck takes up four spots in a parking lot. I also wanted to be able to get around if I wanted to, and that is a lot easier without a trailer. There is an Andersons just down the road, so I will be able to pick up some lunch stuff for tomorrow, and fresh food for in the truck, as well as some batteries for my mouse. They might even have a spare cord for my razor.


I prefer to bring what I can to save money on food while on the road, but there is not a whole lot of room in the truck I am driving when compared to some of the other ones out there. So I can't fit in everything that I did in the past, while driving for Werner. Otherwise I would have frozen meals that I could heat up in my lunch box oven. I would also be carrying a gallon jug of milk with me. Both of these things would save me a huge amount of money. If I keep going over the road I think I will find a way to squeeze it all in there, just to save the money.


Tonight I am staying in, but tomorrow I will be reconnecting with an old friend, at what looks to be a really good restaurant at an affordable price. I can't wait to see what the food is like since the menu already has me drooling.
