Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
I thought so too flashed
Man, have the food gods with us the last couple days Last nights was a steal But this morning it felt necessary to stop at mc Donald's on way out of Milwaukee Tonight we had to pay a bit over 40$ (That's ok though) Because when we both started feeling about 8 months pregnant These nice people at vinny's Gave us the stuff so we are ready for breakfast and lunch tommorow By far, the best meal on this trip so far |

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
You keep heading north, you're going to miss the real Rockies (Colorado that is)! Gonna have to swing back south to catch the changing aspen leaves.
(With apologies to those who live in Montana, Idaho, and select areas of Wyoming)

We keep thinking we want to go see Mount Rushmore Originally Colorado and Utah were on the list but it's not to often You would take a vacation to these off the beaten path places There are so many beautiful places within driving distance in Co. And Ut That we could hit up on a specific vacation I don't think Either of uswould ever go to stugis specifically, But since it is kind of on the way it keeps calling |

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Still ridding along with ya, awesome trip. I enjoyed Iowa 80, if your into American pickers there not to far east along the route to the 80 truck stop. We drove over to both on our route 66 trip while in Illinois. Just a thought.

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Check this place out, we went to
The house on the rock I thought we would see some cool rock formation Instead it was a dream of some guy that he started building back in the 40s He just started, and kept building on this Boulder formation This place was crazy, can't ever explain it He also collected tons of stuff in his lifetime (that is on display too) This pic is us, in what I think was called the infinity room Look behind us it looks like it never ends |

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Here is what it looks like on the outside
Who dreams up a structure like that We were standing in that thing about 2/3 of the way out If you walked to heavily, you could feel it move like you were on a huge diving board |

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
I think I have enough Trix to share a bowl, but we need milk. I'd like to check out that wild place. We have "Falling Waters" near my mom's in PA. You guys are doing it right. That I-80 truck museum could blow a camera up! Never been there, but have seen a lot in pictures. They bring trucks and displays out to the national ATHS shows.
Oops, did I hit Go Advanced, Manage Attachments, Browse, Pictures/Places/Water Towers/Corn Water Tower, Upload by accident?

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
This place is pretty cool
Kind of a museum about rivers Mixed in with aquarium exhibits We wanted to see the ugly bottom dwellers that run rivers I got to pet a sturgeon But I thought this made for a better picture |

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Keep trending North and you'd have retraced Seger's "Roll Me Away." My favorite road/travel song, by far. Cool places!

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
What a trip! If you go see Rushmore lot of other things as well. Crazy Horse, Needles Hwy,Wind Cave. If you come across the state on I90 Mitchell has the Corn Palace,Murdo a car museum and Wall has Wall Drug.If your real brave a side trip through the Badlands.Custer State park nice drive also.You'll miss the buffalo roundup in two weeks that is something to see.Good luck if you have trouble give a shout.

Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Hey Andy,
Thanks for introducing us to all your friends Tailgating Your buddy "Worm" got kicked out... Pretty quickly in fact After only two salutes(with his smuggled in trumpet) I guess Some of ND States fans weren't to excited About his skill at getting the Iowa fans to cheer So they complained about it After that. Steve and joe broke out their stash That stuff in they bring in, in the small bottles Thank god they were a little short! There wasn't enough to go around So Dirk and "smitty" never were able to gain enough momentum Heckling the Bison fans themselves' To have the pleasure of being escorted out to Meet "worm" back in the parking lot where all the free beer was Seriously, all you guys We had a blast in Iowa City And I'll see you With Sky dog Out west This winter |
