    On a weekend trip to Houston, I took a pit stop at the Buc-ee's in Waller, TX. Since no branded postcard was available, I assembled my own from items available at the store.

    Buc-ee's is a chain of incredibly popular roadside gas stations and travel convenience stores. They are concentrated in Texas but common in many southern states (Florida, Kentucky, Georgia, Tennessee, and others). They are all quite massive, that largest location has 120 gas pumps, and the stores are essentially well kept warehouses of food, gifts, and knick-knacks. They are renowned for having massive, incredibly clean restrooms. They are so magnificently clean that I'd happily cross my legs and hold the urge for a hundred miles or more. They are worth planning trips arounds, because they are so clean and offer so much. The iconic yellow Beaver roundel is immediately identifiable and appreciated by anyone in the Southern States.

    Since every Buc-ee's locations sells postcards, I'll keep a book of stamps in my truck so I am able to report in from Buc-ee's locations as I encounter them.
