Shakin' up the I-80 Truckstop

Linda and I stopped by the I-80 Kitchen at the I-80 Truckstop near Walcott, Iowa to try their apple dumpling. We took our seats at the far end of the horseshoe counter and listened to the truckers talk about various loads and destinations. When our waitress carried our dumplings, complete with two scoops of cinnamon ice cream, through the chatting drivers, each in turn paused, speechless, watching it pass by.

"What was that?!"

"That ain't right."

When I took the photo, one of the truckers said "You gotta take a picture of that!" and chuckled. We smiled and enjoyed another one of the 100 Things You Must Eat in Iowa.
