Text Stop

[Dave Wilton]

I didn't pull over to check, but my guess would be that wifi is not
available at many of the "text stops." Some are just parking areas with no
facilities, not even bathrooms. Others are full-blown rest stops with
restaurants, gas stations, and signs advertising wifi.

Is Wifi available? That changes the concept from "rest stop".
