A Gingerbread Buc-ee's

Buc-ee's is a chain of roadside convenience and hunting supply stores. We Texans regard them as the ultimate place to stop on road trips for gas, food, and sparklingly clean bathrooms. There is devout brand loyalty to the chain and people commonly sport clothing with the iconic Bucky the Beaver logo on them.

Deanna Vaters, an employee of the county north of Austin (where Buc-ee's locations are thick on the ground) and her husband made this gingerbread model of a nearby Buc-ee's complete with model cars and lights. They made many of the human figurines to resemble her co-workers.

Can't say I'm surprised. Like Amazon, they saw an opportunity and took full advantage of it before anyone else did. I recently learned that my wife knew the family behind Buc-ee's, which did surprise me. The road shown in front of their corporate headquarters is CR 2004, down which I have traveled many times before Buc-ee's was born, this being 1975-1981.
