QotD: Best Road Trip Ever
What was your favorite road-trip of all time?
Submitted by bodhibound.
To answer this question, I will first refer you to an earlier QotD entry. Go ahead and read that first.
Done? Good.
I'll add that some of the highlights included: Road games. (My habit of making acronyms from the letters on license plates dates from this time). A really nifty LCD multi-game... device... of some sort which I can't remember the name of now, which involved cartridges. (I really wish I could remember what it was called!) Watching the KC Royals beat the Seattle Mariners. (I kept the cheap plastic souvenir Royals helmet for years afterward.) Seeing new places. Spelunking. Taking in sights previously only seen on television, such as Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse Monument (back in the early, early days when you could barely make out the beginnings of the shape of things to come, mind you) and Devil's Tower. Crossing the Mississippi. Getting an up-close look at a giant pipe organ.
Good times.
