Last summer I saw this tweet from Texas Humor:
World traveler over here ? pic.twitter.com/iSrBsXlFgp

This is funny, because that pretty much sums up our summer plans.
I've been known to plan our driving route, or even our entire day, around Buc-ee's locations. And I'll take the small Buc-ees... but I really like the big travel centers (marked with a "*" below).
I love the funny billboards, the giant iced teas, the jerky, the bbq, the clothes, the signs and... of course, the clean restrooms. And the dozen Icee flavors and the rice crispy treats and the Beaver Nuggets and...
I wrote this love letter years ago, but this post includes things to do... close by each Houston area Buc-ees. (And yes, I know this is a little ridiculous.)
