In either case, it is unfit to exist." -Lysander Spooner "If they take the ship, they'll rape us to death, eat our flesh, and sew our skin into their clothing, and if we're very very lucky, they'll do it in that order." - Firefly |

Quoting: >esperIve done San Anton to Seattle several times Spots I like: Try this on google maps 1. Roswell, NM UFO museums then due north Big empty road and easy ride to Interstate. head west. 2. Happy Jack, Az- Meteor Crater spectacular and museum, a little out of the way but worth it. Painted Desert and petrified forest are near by. 3. Monument Valley, Ut spectacular you'll never forget it Indian Reservation 4. Moab, Ut Arches National Park, spectacular too 5. First interstate west and then state highway to Scipio, Ut. Easiest and prettiest ride Then Salt Lake City and through the Columbia River Gorge and that's the best and easiest, no switchbacks and mountains Enjoy |
