On the week of the 24th, I'll be driving to Minnesota with my wife and son, to visit my brother and his gf. The only trips I've taken (that I remember) were to Tennessee, many many times (8 hour trip). This 20 hour drive is going to blow my mind. We're going to drive at night so my son will sleep. And seeing the different landscape is going to be really confusing, because I'm used to the boring wasteland of Georgia, then the mountains. I've never been anywhere but the southeast, I've never spent time in a big city (like minneapolis), and I'm honestly a little frightened by the whole thing. I've really become attached to home.
Anyways, to all you MN guys, I'm looking forward to seeing your home state in a couple weeks!

Have fun on your trip!
I dont know why, but this reminds me of this guy I got a ride with once. He's this old dude from some czech country that doesnt exist anymore or something. Anyway, the guy travels up north, it's a pretty long drive, however, at one point during the drive theres a sign just before a certain stretch of highway that says:
No Fuel for 300 miles.
And than from there on in, all there is, is a two lane highway and you better know what you are doing. Because there is NOTHING up there.
That's a ****** roadtrip!

If I went to NYC, I'd probably **** a brick. I can't even fathom what buildings that large would look like in person.
I love showing people things like Movies (That are good..), Games, the City, parks and places...
Yea, I live among those good views you see on the way down to the city. If you take an MTA Train from any town, you see a nice small down with developments and a river....then 30-90 minutes later and through a tunnel...and BAM...Big city.
I <3 NY.
