The way economic development works in flyover land, you build a parking lot and it attracts cagers. Eventually, it is hoped that a business might take pity upon the cagers and create something with which to entertain them in exchange for being parked.

This results in the peculiar sensation of driving along for hours passing through endless parking lots with setbacks of a half mile or more. The businesses are so far from the roadway that they have to build little stumps at turnoffs with the names of the chain businesses that have elected to open a branch at this or that parking lot, with arrows pointing so you know which parking lots to drive through to get to Payless Shoes or Jo Anne Fabrics or Edible Arrangements or whatever else is presumed to attract cagers off the thoroughfare and into the giant empty parking lot.

You then drive for about 5 minutes through a parking lot and park near the door, unless you have some mental illness about your cage being "touched" by strangers in which case you park it up to a quarter mile from the other cages and walk (this proves how much you love your cage which is a sort of virtue signaling among and between flyovers)

Also food and cooking.
