I left at 7 AM in the pouring rain. The parking spot I was in last night must have been in a low area of the truck stop because it flooded. The water was up into the bottom of my APU. I drove to the Petro truck stop in West Memphis, Arkansas. I'll be here until Tuesday morning. Can't run my permit load over the holiday weekend. I'll get a pole car on Tuesday morning too.
I decided to get a rental car (Daily is paying for it) for a few days since I was going to be here for a while. Picked it up and played tourist this afternoon. I drove over to Beale Street in Memphis, Tennessee.
From there, I went over to the Bass Pro Shops at the Pyramid.

It was not what I had expected in there. There are restaurants, shops, and a hotel in there!! I took the elevator up to the observation deck.

Here is the view from the observation deck. You are looking southwest at the I-40 bridge over the Mississippi River.
This is the bridge that broke and was closed back in May of 2021. Obviously, it has since been repaired.
Here is the view from the observation deck looking southeast.
That's all for today. I'll play tourist again tomorrow.
