I've flown up and down that route many times, but never found a convent at or near any of the airports I landed.

What would you consider "better than average services?"

For me that would be cheap self service av gas.

I landed at a farmer's grass strip just outside Washington, Indiana, on a flight from OSH to Gantt International Airport, Alabama.  Driven down by low viz and heavy rain.  He put me up in his shop and took me to supper at the local Amish Buffet.  Had a little gall from the local newspaper come out next morning to take photos and get an interview.  Even sent me a copy of the article after I got back to hauck's holler.  It was great.  Normally they tell you they'll send you a copy, but never fulfill their promise.

On another flight I landed at Washington Airport, Indiana.  Discovered I could sleep in the FBO and found an old beater in the parking lot with the key in it.  Beat feet down to the Amish Buffet once again.

Those were fun days.

Now those were really cool days, mal.  Good luck and have a safe flight.
