Its my favorite part of the whole USA. I think of it as "the east coast of
california".
I traveled through it two weeks after 911 in a non cruise control Volvo
station wagon to San Antonio to a LHSA meeting. I just went low and slow and
avoided radar kinda like a cruise missile.
Baghdad Caf? is there. Amonst other stuff. Those rocks which Ansel shot.
The Japanese concentration camp. And so on.
Nice lakes.
Mountains.
Plains.
Stupendous light.
