Oh no!  Since Gulf Wars I, we've stopped there on every trip to Gulf  
Wars for their Breakfast buffet on the way in. It has been a last,  
filling non-camping meal before the days of GW.  Since it is about 11  
hours from home, we have planned things to hit there first and then go  
get in line for the rigors and waiting of GW check-in. Sigh.

One of my memories of that first Gulf Wars was pulling into the  
Shoney's parking lot and seeing a mid-sized car with a tall-sided  
trailer which looked like a porcupine with its bunch of pole arms and  
spears sticking up and out in all directions. "I bet I know where  
they're going!"
