So I’m continuing with my planning for the cross-country trip I want to undertake next summer. I’ve actually found a place here in New York that will rent me an RV, I’ve narrowed the dates down to sometime during the months of July and August, and I’ve come up with a list of places I want to see.
The List
Michigan
- •World’s Former Largest Cherry Pie - 6591 South US 31, Charlevoix, Michigan
- •World’s Largest Cherry Pie Pan - 3424 Cass Rd, Traverse City, Michigan
Kentucky
- •Louisville Slugger Museum - 800 West Main Street, Louisville, Kentucky
Kansas
- •World’s Largest Ball of Twine- Cawker City, Kansas
South Dakota
- •Mitchell Corn Palace - 601 N. Main St., Mitchell, South Dakota
- •Deadwood - Deadwood, South Dakota
Nebraska
- •Carhenge - Alliance, Nebraska
Oregon
- •The Spruce Goose @ Evergreen Aviation Museum - 500 Ne Captain Michael Ki, McMinnville, Oregon
Arizona
- •Meteor City - Meteor City, Arizona
- •Barringer Crater - Winslow, Arizona
- •The Heart Attack Grill - 6185 W Chandler Blvd. Chandler, Arizona 85226 (and I already have a lunch date there with Heartless)
Alabama
- •Hitler’s Typewriter - 1905 Alabama Ave., Bessemer, Alabama
Tennessee
- •Jack Daniels Distillery - 280 Lynchburg Hwy, Lynchburg, Tennessee
So here’s a map I had started working on through MapQuest, but they limit you to only 10 stops.
I need to use a real trip planner anyway, because I want to build into the itinerary time for rest stops, sleep, refueling, and the actual time I’ll be spending at each place. So this is the foundation of the trip, and I’ll be building it up over the winter.
Anyone have any suggestions???
EDITED: Change in The Heart Attack Grill address to 6185 W Chandler Blvd. Chandler, Arizona 85226 on 1/20/2008
