“THANK YOU, LEGACY CHEVRON!! We were pressure washing the bank next to Legacy Chevron and as we were packing to leave a bank, we heard a cat meowing, loudly, as if in distress. Stopping what we were doing, we walked over to where we heard the cat. It was coming from a commercial air conditioning unit beside the bank. We kept hearing the cat, but could NOT find it. At one point, we actually thought someone was playing a prank on us! Finally, however, we spotted the tiny kitten in an obstructed-from-view corner of the unit. It was a tiny black kitten. Unknown HOW/WHY it was in the area it was (all commercial) we tried to find a way to get the kitten out. Trying several different things, nothing worked. Finally, we decided to find some food and leave a trail from where the kitten as hiding to outside the unit through a hole in the back. Problem: we had no food. I walked across the street to a convenience store, surely they had something I could buy that would lure the kitten - they did not. Except... They had a salad bar and had small chunks of ham cut up. I asked the gentleman at the register if they would sell me a small condiment cup of ham and told the gentleman the story. He smiled and said to just get the ham, no charge, it's for the cat." I thanked him and went back to the cat. My son was able to reach into the unit from behind and put several pieces of the ham in front of the kitten and it was eaten immediately! Placing other pieces in a trail out the back, the cat came out from behind the partition wall and he was able to grab the cat, still inside the air conditioning unit. He was able to, after some fancy moving and positioning, get the kitten out to safety. FORTUNATELY, a lady had come to the bank to make a night deposit and came over to us while we were trying to get the kitten out, and she took the kitten to give it a home!! A HUGE THANK YOU to Legacy Chevron on Highway 43 in Russellville for graciously allowing me to take some ham for the rescue of the kitten! As we were leaving, we stopped by the store and thanked the gentleman, again. [PHOTO: The black kitten's head can be seen, center top, slightly left, in the photo.]”

“Good place for truck driver to grab a bite to eat and rest up. Small building, but has a pretty nice variety of food and drinks and even has cooked food like hamburgers, egg rolls, and potato wedges.4 stars only though because the lot itself could use some care and a little bit of an upgrade.”

“the only true negative is the lack of parking and maneuverability (like the other businesses competing with the walmart parking lot). although the restroom is "outside", it always appears FAR more sanitary and orderly than any other gas stations in the area. the employees are always as nice as you are to them. tobacco prices are rather low and all coupons are welcome.”

Read the postLove's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees.
