Glow and I have been through Idaho a couple of times with the family during family driving trips. On one trip we took a slight detour to visit Preston, Idaho, home of Napoleon Dynamite. With no map and without much effort, we found the high school, the Pop n Pins bowling alley, Rex Kwan Do (yes, it's a real place), Summer Wheatley's house, and to top things off, we discovered Uncle Rico's van parked in the driveway of a random house. We got out of the car to take a closer look, and on the dashboard was a small sign that said, "Yes, this is Uncle Rico's van."

Great stuff!

I'm surprised at all the folks who have made it to North Dakota. Few ever get there. My one visit was as a youth when my parents had done a Pacific NW trip that included the beautiful Lake Louise. We came back home through the state.

Speaking of 'sham' visits, that kinda how my first Louisiana trip happened only 2-3 years ago. Was driving across eastern Texas and decided to hit the corner near Shreveport rather than head straight toward Texarkana. Funny that not 6 months later Chick and I decided on a Big Easy long weekend.

Also, don't be the idiot American I saw in the airport getting angry at a cashier because he didn't know how expensive the country was.

In Norway I saw an idiot American get pissed because the guy with the ice cream cart didn't take U.S. dollars. I asked him (the American) if he accepted knoner when back home. He just looked confused.

I've seen Americans get pissed because some random person they stopped on the street in Germany or Italy didn't speak English. No wonder everyone hates us.

this just in USA today, today-

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2018/03/31/mexico-tourist-fears-violence-cancun-los-cabos/471115002/

easy for us to make judgments about the relative safety of mexico from here. i can't imagine this paper has an agenda against mexico. over 29,000(THOUSAND with a T???) homicides in 2017 and so far they are up 21%-sorry, but they better get this schmit taken care of. i had to read that twice thinking it was a typo, but... i can think of many other places to go for a little R & R

good thing they ain't mass shootings with assault rifles though, i don't think anyway

Read it again, rocket. I am the one with the slightly doughy body. I am working out to get in shape for our Mexico trip, though. Based on everything I'm reading here, it will be my last days on earth, so I might as well go out looking fine.

You and Yogi will have to get together over a lovely cabernet to decide what to do with the DVDs.

Day 2 in Cabo so far.

Fiancee and I have neither been drugged nor murdered. Smooth sailing. Lots of sun, pool and booze.

Of course, we haven't left the resort either.
