I've been listening to Iowa Public Radio (IPR) while catching up on this forum. There's a talk/interview show called "Talk of Iowa" (http://iowapublicradio.org/programs/talk-iowa) and today's show (09/15/2015) was about an independent film called "River to River: Iowa’s Forgotten Highway 6" (tagline: Adventure Begins Where Four Lanes Ends!). Highway 6 is America's second-longest transcontinental highway (I-80 is the longest), and listening to this show really made me want to travel Highway 6 (and I grew up in the area!) I now have it in my head that when I'm finally able to get an Elio and have the engine properly gentled (NOT "broken in" -- it's not a "thing", it's a living entity with feelings and I want it to love me the way I love it), that's the first long-range trip I want to make and see all these historical sites along the way.

I've put a link to the film's web site in the film title above, and if you want to listen to the show while you're in the garage or whatever, you can go to the IPR website tomorrow and download the show.

So, aside from going to the grocery store and back, what's YOUR first major destination?

After that, depends if it's football season, racing season, or go visit the rellies in SoCal season (aka Winter with a capital W).

If I have time, I'd love to head south out of Shreveport and run the length of the Great River Road past home to Itasca State Park up in Minnesota, then back to the house.
