Night Hawlks at the Dinner Huh MarcoOriginally Posted by Marco
Cheers, dude.
Have you seen the film 'Duel', where that mad truck driver hounds that guy in the car all over the American countryside (dunno what area it was in), and at one point he drives into a remote diner, just off of the dusty road, to escape?
It's *exactly* on roads and in areas like that I'd to go! For those who watched The Sopranos, I also liked the look of the area where Vito escaped to for a while, after being found out to be gay, and where he made friends with another gay guy, who made the 'Johnny cakes', in a diner (that diner also looked superb!)
2000 miles of heavenly peace in a place time has left behind for the most part. Take a whole 7 day week and rent a convertible mustang in late spring of early summer.
Chris, cheers for the info - noted!
Marco.
You may just meet some one like in the movie Kalifornia with Brad Pit and Juliette Lewis, or if you happen across a small southern town and hear dueling banjos being played run! Deliverance with Burt Reynolds.
This should be on your short list.
You'll go to all the old historic dinners seen in movies ( the real deal) the old Motels off the beaten path since the interstate went in.
Rout 66 is no longer travailed much but there are historic motels with pictures of old movie stars no one even remembers anymore.
It's as cool a road trip as you will ever make and the old timers are full of storys that can be heard over a hot cup of coffee.
If you want to meet real people in small towns this is made to order it starts in the big city of Chicago goes right through the heart of America and ends in L.A. on the west coast of California. I hope to take my own family on this trip when Conner gets older.
Living on an Island coast lines are most likley not a big deal for you but California dose have a fantastic one and that is where the journey ends.
