I have fond memories of my dad as a truck driver.
I admire truck drivers, they have a harder job than people realize.
I agree.  My dad drove for about 40 years, but then, it was all manual, not computerized like now.
My mother used to work at a Truck Stop for 20 years until they closed it down.
It's rare to see truck stops these days
It was a traditional truck stop and diner called Smokey Valley until they closed it down.
Where was it located
Located in Ohio right off the interstate where all the heavy truck traffic is.
