  • Join our roadtrip adventure from Texas to Minnesota as we drive a Penske truck across the country! We found some awesome reptile stores along the way, and even picked up a few new friends (including a very unexpected one!).
    THE COLORING BOOKS ARE HERE!!! Link below!

    Only Emily would be able to go on a 14 hour trip with zero snakes and come back with three new snakes and a jumping spider, in addition to all of the actual stuff the trip was for. LOL

    Driving across the country,in a pandemic for decor for pets. This just shows how much Ed and Emily care about their pets, new facility, and fans. Famous people always say I wouldn’t be where I’m at today if it weren’t for our fans. But for snake discovery I wouldn’t be in the reptile community for if it weren’t for you guys. Thanks for making this community strong and too show you truly care about all of your pet’s wellbeing!

      Lol there are lots of smaller Buc-ees, but only a few that big!
      Their biggest point-of-pride is their bathrooms. ALWAYS clean, which is really nice when you're traveling long ways.
      We measure distance sometimes by Buc-ees.
      For example, it is 4 Buc-ees from Houston to Austin. 😉
      Also Beaver Nuggets now come in dark chocolate and white chicolate covered.
      They. Are. Magnificent.

      That is a 'truck stop' gas staion. Most are far smaller - but at places where major interstates connect... they get big like this to cater to long haul truckers (and locals who want cheeper gas). There is showers, places to sleep and sitdown resturants in there too.

    • @asunflower7993

    • @allywallydd
      @allywallydd 3 года назад +3

      As others have said, even by our standards that one is HUGE. "Everything is bigger in Texas" is also pretty true; but it's also a truck stop, meant to accommodate semi-trucks and lots of interstate travelers as seen. I used to work at QuikTrip (featured at the end of their video) and those are more of a normal size, but even the truck stop ones are usually at least the size of a soccer field. This Buc-ee's however is easily the largest I've ever seen!

    • @skullfullofbooks7398
      @skullfullofbooks7398 3 года назад +3

      It is definitely an anomaly in the US as well. Believe me, our normal sized gas station is much smaller. Heck, some in the NYC area are literally just a little booth to pay and some covered wares between the lanes. But you'll see a conglomerate of different stores or rest centers on major highways. Many times they're the only stop for miles so they get a ton of business. Never heard of the one in the video before though, that must be a southern thing.

I think there are probably many other similarly terrific places): Tacos San Pedro and Super Tortas El Chavo. The former is a great taqueria with terrific menudo on weekends (if you're into that). The second specializes in (huge and delicious) tortas (i.e. Mexican sandwiches). The kitchen can be a little slow, but it's a kind of fun atmosphere: they have a parrot and the decor is based on the Mexican sitcom El Chavo.
