Rest stops and service plazas

In the west we have quiet, sometimes grubby, rest stops which I’ve always found woodsy and peaceful.

Out here in the east we have “service plazas” that include gas stations, corporate food places like Starbucks, McDonalds and Roy Rogers, and are as busy as malls.

In the former, the toilets are modest things with the occasional chemical toilet or, on the other hand, an automatic.

In the latter, the toilets go berserk flushing and flushing and flushing like a roaring waterfall before the “visitors” are even done.
