day 303 Smithville, Tennessee

Woodbury was freezing cold in the morning, the ground white with frost, I rode for Short Mountain and Smithville. Interesting stories along the way. Got in late to Smithville, caught a ride with the Woodbury vetrinarian. Smithville is part of the same route I rode in 1986, 24 years ago when I crossed the US on a horse named Mac-N-Water.

Hey, I don't give a shit where he's from, if you are going to sell to the public you have an obligation to have a restroom, and in many states it's becoming the law. Get used to it, join the civilized world and don't tell customers they can piss out back if you don't want shitty press. The Mexican was better. And he didn't cop an attitude.

Very well known that Mexicans are made to do much of the hardest ag labor in the US. Would be a joke to say otherwise. The guy has a gas station and a store but he isn't up to providing a restroom for his customers? What? He's a cheap Charlie? Where does he shit? But that's too good for the people who help him make his living? I bought ONLY a small bag of chips because he offered no restroom. The Mexican was much more human. He was only place in US like that.

@akhazauh Well I'm from the town, and I worked at Judkin's Nursery, and I worked as hard as anyone. In fact the Mexicans there considered me a brother. They invited me to their homes for dinner, and even taught me their language. As I said, the store is connected to his home, and his personal bathroom is the only one. Tu Senor, eres un mentiroso. Also, quit pretending he's some southern white guy. David was born in Palestine.

@Mystic0157 What's not very neighborly is your gross misrepresentation of our town. "That road" is Short Mountain Hwy., and yes it is fairly busy. Not to mention the FOUR HUNDRED PEOPLE who work across the street and patronize David's store, often requesting use of his bathroom. The store is connected to his home, that's where the restroom is! Do you honestly think he's gonna let people come in and use his home restroom? You imbecile. You bigot. You lying bigot. Misrepresenting our town. a shame

@chandlerdakid Not very neighborly of David from D&D or you and your rude comments. There was apparently a 5 degree wind chill. A good neighbor would understand that, public restroom or not. By the way, the road in question is not a busy one with heavy travel, so I doubt "David from D&D," has a lot of requests for use of his restroom.

[chandlerdakid]

I'm from Smithville and you're a stupid idiot. David from D & D is a nice guy, he doesn't have a public restroom. I used to work at that Nursery, Judkin's Nursery. The white guys work just as hard. Also the store/resteraunt you visited was once white owned. Kilgore sold it to Benito. David from D & D wasn't even born in America, he was born in Palestine. Quit misrepresenting out town a-hole.
