All the TX & NM & most of the CO Rest Areas I’ve stopped in have been pretty nice. The bigger TX ones have onsite attendees that keep them clean.
I don’t do WallyWorld. Fugg that. I’ve seen their typical customer base.

"Allways speak the truth and you will never have to remember what you said before..." Sam Houston Texans, "We say Grace, We Say Mam, If You Don't Like it, We Don't Give a Damn!"
So im driving old pipeline right of ways and ranch roads out in the eastern edge of the Great American Desert in Loving County, the least populated in Texas looking for blue quail. There are a few scattered drilling rigs and some recent new piplines running through the 200 Sq mile A.... Ranch west of Kermit. Sandhills, buckbrush, mesquite, buffalo grass country.
A big new shiny black F250 is hauling ass toward me so i pull up as it slides to a halt in a cloud of dust and stops with its driver, a freaking white guy, 4 feet away from me. The Mexican guy in the passenger seat hollers at me, "Do you know where is the closest porta potty?"
I aint be,ieving this schiett.
I look around and finally reply, "yeah, under every one of all those mesquite trees but i would just sit on that trucks back bumper and take a crap.'
They looked at me kind of funny before having that Eureka moment.

Stopped in an old truckstop near Blacksburg VA late one night, had to crap and get some coffee. When I couldn't find the men's room, the cashier pointed to a small building on the upper side of the parking lot. I think this place was old enough to have once used out houses, and the bathrooms were built near their site.
I trekked over, the first stall was occupied so I took the second. Dropped my britches, dropped my butt, dropped my load. Sitting there for a second, relieved to have done it all in the right order, and in the right place, I noticed a big hole in the wall. Now it wasn't the first I ever saw. Matter of fact, I often wondered why a guy would sit there and whittle on a hole in another mans wall. But I did notice I could easy see the other guys legs.
Just as I reached for some paper, I hear, Fwap, fwap, fwap! I look up, and can see that cöcksucker jerking it. Well, I wasn't done, wasn't about to leave with a fully speckled crack, and didn't want to stay. Scared pretty bad, I opened my Case lockback. A 3" blade, and held it in one hand while I took care of the paperwork. I was just waiting for him to stick it through that hole. My mind was made up to cut it bad, and run.
I think he head it click. He quit spanking and left.
Then, I was worried about leaving. It's a good thing some innocent fool didn't walk in that door as I was opening it. I might have gutted him before either of us knew what was happening.
Long haul trucking is quite a learning experience for a sheltered 21 year old Hillbilly kid. It's a big world to be running around in all alone.

When it comes to rest areas, the busier, the better as they are safer and cleaner. My most recent interstate fudge drop was at the 94 WB welcome center in MN. Clean and pleasant.
