Gerald,
Some might, some might not have the fridge stuffed. When I was a child we stopped
in route, both to break up the trip for the rugrats and to get the "local" flavor. As
well, it provided for opportunities to meet with folks "out there" and to wait 'til
the very last minute to get cold stuffs. Not saying one way or the other is right or
wrong...I am saying that 8lbs of frozen water coming to a sudden stop after resting
comfortably in your 30 year old brittle plastic fridge lining is gonna do some damage.
