We were just out there Saturday to hear the Orlando Symphony and the Carrillion Bells - we'd seen the cutoff sign for Bok Tower and Spook Hill. Last time we were out there we'd tried it - as I recall you can put your car in neutral and it appears to roll up hill ...

Anyway, no GPS on Spook Hill, I guess we had a guide book last time - so at the cutoff I flipped a U turned into a "7-11" and the gals all went into a tizzy! "Don't stop! Don't Stop!" - While I get that all the time (;-) I agreed and we buzzed out of there ... the "patrons" all looked like they's just left state prison and every eye was on us ... we still looked around for it but failed and just went on home ... like you say - except for Bok Tower - not a pretty place. ;-)

That happened to us on I-40 in Tennessee. My mom and wife isnsisted on stopping in the middle of the night to use the restroom. I didn’t like the place even though it was very well lit but isolated. There were lots of cars in the parking area with too many people sitting in them doing nothing.

My wife amd mom made it half way to the door then made a u-turn and headed back to the truck. they decided to stop somewhere else.

As for me, I never got out of the truck. I had my hands around a fully loaded Browning Hi-Power and a Cz-75.

Just in case.
