Gotcha Denis, it’s about politics. Too bad people allow relatively petty stuff that they can’t change to so badly influence their lives. Btw I drove nearly an hour one way to meet you, I believe you were picking up a body part for your truck at a salvage yard. We had lunch and a beer at a nearby restaurant. I also recall we were both at a Pelican group meet up in LA many years ago.

I’ve been all over the country and always get something out of the experience of visiting somewhere new. Some good, some bad, but always an experience. Someday post kids I want to do cross country road trips in a fun car, avoiding the interstate. Getting back to the original theme of this thread, I’ve had amazing food in some of the most podunk places you can imagine. You just have to be open to it.
