I want to do a trip like that. No electronic maps or planned destinations. Just wake up in the morning and use a real map to figure out where we are going to end up that day. It's definitely got to have more than just me though.

I'd do it with you but it requires more time off work or no job.

yeah, I wish I could pull off the no job thing, but keep getting the cash.

Along similar lines, I've always wanted to take a ride to Centralia, PA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centralia,_Pennsylvania)

We went there with marko and GM wasnt what I thought it would be but still soem rather cool stuff with smoke comming out of the ground, soem areas with no vegetation growing and soem crazy cracks in the roads. I think the last few people who lived there were forced to leave not too long ago

I'm only 4.5 hours away. I should really do it sometime.

I went through there not too long ago, there are still a few houses left but its just as confusing now as it was in 2009, a road still goes right through it that is heavily used so you blink and you miss it.
