I live in alexandria VA. Like alexander said the food in that area outside of D.C. is fantastic.

Make sure you check out the grand canyon. That is definitely a must see on your trip through the west.

Something to consider is a guide book to #1 top destinations in each state. Might make it easier to know what to check out when driving through each state.


I would add to look at top destinations in states bordering the ones where you already know you will be traveling to see if there is something worth the detour.


Also, bring lots of media. The US is big. REALLY big. I the northeast you can drive through some of the states in 2-3 hours, but as you go farther west the distances between states and especially cities can stretch to hours and hours even on the Interstate highway system (which is the most boring way to travel).

Nope not that one and it was very much alive.

Threw sand all the time to cool itself. (Rest of the ones did also / moved to water and back. It's a bit tricky to catch that on still photos.)

looks like you had fun.

and "fun"; someone should have warned you to stay out of oakland though but at least you didn't stay in stockton.

the sandwich post was most amusing though

damn man, sorry to hear. yeah, ppl are probably still really nuts as well with my GS warriors (nba) winning their first title in 40 yrs. people usually use sports winning as an excuse for hooliganism. also, oakland, from my really short experience there gave me anxiety.

It isn't the Warriors winning, it's just Oakland being Oakland. We try to pretend that city doesn't exist. Sorry to hear about the car and your stuff Flamee but it looks like you enjoyed the rest of the trip. Now that you have tasted In-and-Out Burger you will forever feel it's absence in your life.

That and Five Guys. :)

Yes it was fun and it was mostly clothes that got stolen. So nothing insurance does not cover.

For anyone who is planning same trip, try to arrange 1,5 months (or more). That extra 1,5 weeks would have been great.

Last Tuesday, 02:36 AM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

Soheil: Coh2 still broken server ?
25 Mar 2025, 18:27 PM
Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific. :snfQuinn:.

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
18 Mar 2025, 19:01 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.
