Man, Matt's name keeps coming up! I never met him when I lived there but he lived a couple miles down the road from me, and my (different) hobbies keep having his name pop up, I'm going to email him and ask him if he has anything else that is slated for my future. I think I knew a Steve, if he was a tall guy with long grey hair, but not likely.
Truck stop doesn't sound familiar, there's the gas station closer to the river, and a couple on the edge of town that are a little larger, but I don't know of any projects. Then again, I haven't been over there for about 2 years.
