My dad would always stop here when I was a kid to let our overheating car cool down. Now that I have kids, we decided to visit for a pit stop here to use the restroom and get some snacks and stickers. The kids had a blast and loved the skeleton decorations. It was worth the visit! Next time, we will try the fresh food.

I heard about RRR from an NPR article today Aug. 4th 2024. They opened their facility up to fire victims at no charge, housing, feeding, other needs. Incredible. This Texas girl has a new pit stop when we get to make it our to CA!
