Yeah man. My granny had one on the road in her front yard. Lots of folks stopped there to eat. Nothing special about it. Just a wide shoulder/pull off at 2 state hwy intersections
Yeah , we would eat our cooked at home hot dogs on the road and they were just plain but I remember then being great . Maybe we would stop and buy some bologna and bread at the grocery store and have that !!!!!! My grand kids would never go for that , until they understand the other thing on the menu was don't eat .Some of the state parks still have picnic tables here in NC.. I have eaten a lot of fried chicken and potato salad on a table beside the road and ham sandwiches and potato chips as well. When we traveled my Mom made up most of our food that we carried in a cooler for eating at a roadside picnic table. Sometimes we did eat breakfast at a restaurant or stopped for a lunch of good ole hot dogs. I miss those days.
There are still a few picnic tables for public use around our area but not many.
We had our share of bologna but we usually fried it then added a slab of good ole country store hoop cheese the good kind you can't get anymore. I usually washed it down with a Pepsi.Yeah , we would eat our cooked at home hot dogs on the road and they were just plain but I remember then being great .

There's one out here in Walton county off 78 and Mt Vernon RdAnd there use to be springs on the side of the road with pipes drove into them for easy access to fresh water.
The jungle has probably re-claimed it,like it has my yard.There's one out here in Walton county off 78 and Mt Vernon Rd
It's not usually mowed around, but it's down there.. There used to be a picnic table out there too, but I cant remember if it still is
