Thanks for the read, that was a great recount of a trip i'd love to experience. I think our trip will be similar in that we'll have to find alot of the simple joys of middle America by stumbling upon it. That in itself is an exciting thought. We're planning another trip down the track sometime where we'll spend 3 months seeing the entire country which will be sensational. This trip in October will be an experience where we'll have to feel out America and get an idea on what to expect somewhat when we have the big trip. I think not knowing what is out there and simply running into it is a pretty good way to go right now.
