Clark,

I have a Newell acquaintance who travels the back roads instead of the interstates, he loves it. He tries to stay on US highways because most of them have a good paved shoulder and many are four lane (especially in Texas).

I have done that a few times and sometimes you run thru neat little towns that have some beautiful old buildings, brick streets etc. When the weather is right, it is fun to stop and walk around and go into some of the shops. It is amazing what you can find; some junk and some not! It makes for some good memories.
