Later today, after work. Heading out for our first go-round hunting elk, anyone in GMU 43 feel free to look us up. We should be staying in the KOA in Carbondale, in a silverish GMC crewcab, white trailer and tent.

America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

My crew and I will be leaving the Philadelphia area at 6AM tomorrow. We head Rt. 70 through Kansas, never had an issue. Heading to St. Louis by tomorrow evening. Thursday morning we depart St. Louis at 6AM, pass through Canon City around dinner and into Cotopaxi before too late.
Friday I'll be fishing the Arkansas and Saturday morning we'll be on the hunt. All 3 of us drew Bull and Buck tags.
Enjoy the hunt while it lasts!

When driving through Nebraska on I80 Ole's biggame steakhouse is a must stop..
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Coming back from a youth trip to NM and up to Pikes Peak in the mid 70s we spent a night in Salinas. We NC boys found the local girls to be quite welcoming. None of us much cared how our driver felt.

I-80 thru Nebraska is worse. Best seen at night going 80 mph.......

Between Virginia and Colorado, Kansas is my favorite part of the drive. Different strokes for different folks.
Wife and I will go out to KS on occasion and just drive around for a week. The Flint Hills region is some of the prettiest grasslands I've ever seen.
If you're heading West on 70, stop and top the truck off in Salina and then again in Colby - whether you need it or not.
God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy...
