Estes Park

Original Pony Express building

Gateway to the West

This was a tourist trap!

The Rockies

US 36

Like the old days

There were many Mom and Pop motels along US 36 all Around $45 a night. Great road lots of scenery about 30 miles between towns.

Change in plans

Ran into a fellow from Salt Lake City at a gas station in Southern Illinois. Said he going West on US 36. I had never been on US 36 ..  Sooooo

Heading home

I started up 41 from Chattanooga, but the Tennessee River bridge was out. 

5 days of Georgia country roads

Quiet Evening

Chattanooga Delta Queen Dinner Cruise

The Melon Patch. Chickamauga, Ga

All the food is made fresh each morning

Dancin shoes ?

Not sure what this is about, but its different...

Been here "forever"

Southern Cooking

The greens are frozen .... What a shame

Eats at Big River

Best egg rolls I ever tasted. Fresh brewed sweet tea.

Annalisa Netherly

Check the Internet for stories of Ms. Netherly. For the local flavor ...  Take the tour.

The Underground Railroad

This underground parking is on a site where several skeletons of runaway slaves were found in a tunnel. Everyone in the group was getting blurry photos once the tour guide starting his story.

Hai of the Dog

Cool looking pub, food smelled GREAT ... I'll try to get back to here.

Walnut St Bridge

Two black men were lynched on the bridge. Both were suspected of raping white women. One in 1893, the other in 1903. Stories on the Internet. Local folklore is much different than the internet. For those stories you'll have to take the tour.

Agoraphobia .....

A wealthy man lived in the room above the tree. He never left the room for

many years. His servants brought him all he needed. He died there and many say they still see his figure in the window.

The glass bridge

I had never seen a bridge with a glass floor. One person had a dog ... The dog refused to cross the bridge.
