Does anyone else want to take a trip across the US, seeing the vast and beautiful nature along the way?
>>2854642Cool map.
>>2854642I wouldn't go on a free all expense paid trip across your shit hole country.
Do you want any recommendations for Appalachia? It's the "secret cool kids club" of America. In that, you aren't particularly seen as cool for going there, esp. the parts that are not the Smokies or Adirondacks/New England, so there's a lot mysterious places and you will never find them all in your whole life.
>>2854642I've done it four times already. Hell, I'm only seven states shy of the full set.
>>2854642Already done it multiple times>>2854644seethe
>>2854644angry because we are probably going to take over your country very soon
>>2854642you want to see some old road trip pictures?
>>2854719I found this Flickr account one time with a lot of old timey pictures taken of hiking in the highlands of West Virginia in the 1970s and 1980s, really wonderful stuff, wish I had saved the usernameI feel like 50 years ago might have been a golden era where people were slightly less fussy about private property and just roaming around looking for cool stuff.
>>2854720it was more of an adventure back in the day for sure. all the places that used to be nice have been gentrified and are now full of california people
You shouldn't drive across. Most of the middle of the country is boring. You waste days driving through nothing. The ideal trip is a west coast route from South-North in June. Do the National Parks out west. Yosemite, Zion, Bryce, Canyonlands, Arches, Tetons, Yellowstone.
>>2854945then you would miss corn palace and wall drug store.
>>2854945At most you'd spend two days driving from the mountain west before you reach Chicago. I'm sure someone who's never seen the great plains could at least appreciate the large empty space they're driving through since its beautiful in its own way. And you can even do roadside attractions like the Minuteman Museum or Little Big Horn. Deadwood is also a good stopover point in the middle of the country on I 90 too.
>>2854945>you waste daysYou can drive through the entire midwest in a single day, and even then if you have half a braincell driving through the midwest isn't bad if you know to stay off the boring interstate.
>>2854956>then you would miss corn palaceHOLY FUCK this actually exists haha
>>2854642Yes I want to come. Are u in the Northeast?
>>2855434>drive through in a single day>stay off the interstatePick oneTook me four days to drive across Kansas last timeI found Kansas in late spring to be very beautiful and peaceful. The cleanliness of everything is unbelievable, as is the care that everyone takes in beautifying their surroundings. The only downside is how little room you have to roam. There's not much to do besides driving and walking the old deserted Main Streets of a thousand little towns along your route. I remember initially setting out on my first American roadtrip thinking I could stop at anybody's house and strike up a conversation with them. Wrong-o. The few times I did that, people responded very suspiciously. Midwest Americans are mega homebodies. They have big comfy homes, and they spend virtually all of their free time in and around their homes. When they go out, it's either for church, work or shopping. Not for leisure activity. If you want to meet people, go to church.
