I thought I had them all. Good Sam, AAA, AllStays, etc. I was wrong. I have now found the crème de la crème of travel guides. An indispensable source! Did you know The Spam Museum is right along Route 90?! I would have driven right past it! http://www.atlasobscura.com/places/spam-museum - http://www.atlasobscura.com/places/spam-museum And just down the road is the World's Largest Sixpack! http://www.atlasobscura.com/places/world-s-largest-six-pack - http://www.atlasobscura.com/places/world-s-largest-six-pack Don't forget The Oz Museum while driving west through Kansas: http://www.atlasobscura.com/places/oz-museum-3 - http://www.atlasobscura.com/places/oz-museum-3 Now I know I'm gonna need more than 4 weeks for this Summer's trip.  Fun site. fred ------------- 2014 RPod 178 => https://goo.gl/CV446f - MyMods and Buying Habits 2008 4Runner Limited 4.0-liter V6 Yes, those are wild ponies dining on grass while dumping tanks! |

LOL, I'm not even going to look or I'll regret all the cool stuff I'm missing on our trip this summer. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual

We have lived within 45 minutes of the Spam museum for 25 years, but never visited. I know they have some clever and comical billboards. Is it worth a visit? Sam ------------- 2012 rPod 173 2008 Trailblazer 4WD V6 |

Hi sammycamper, Never been there but, between the link above and your mention of billboards I'm thinking something like South of the Border..."Pedro Says - Chile Today, Hot Tamale"... Arghhh, those billboards would always drive me nutz driving I95. Seems like they were always one mile apart starting 500 miles from the place. fred ------------- 2014 RPod 178 => https://goo.gl/CV446f - MyMods and Buying Habits 2008 4Runner Limited 4.0-liter V6 Yes, those are wild ponies dining on grass while dumping tanks! |
