    Safe travels.
  • Stop by the Shoshone falls in Twin Falls when you go through. The Canyon just past the falls is where Evil Kenivel crashed his rocket into the Snake river. The falls are called the Niagra of the west.

    Holler at us once you get in!
    drivingrl: "Will I ever get to meet Gwen Stefani?"
    kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.

    Next!"

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Crossed that bridge just a few days ago and told my wife about ol' Evil Kenivel. As we're crossing that monstrous chasm she says "what the fuck was he thinking?" :lol:

    People jump off the bridge in the middle to commit suicide thinking they'll fall all the way to the bottom but half the time the winds are so strong they get smashed against the cliffs before they get there... Pleasant thought for the day.

    Boise looks like a shithole from the Interstate. C'mon into the downtown area and you'll see why it's one of the hidden gems of the west.

    The best is when you hit the Gorge east of Portland and how rapidly everything changes.

    Yeah, western Oregon isn't much to drive through... for the most part. And the speeding limit! My god how can people drive so slow?

    I like that people go slower. Then I go visit my folks in Indiana and I'm like 'Jesus H, I'm in a effing nascar race.'

    Crossing into Oregon from Idaho, going 84 to having to drive 65 (your cops take it seriously) is just a momentum killer. I'm like - I CAN RUN THIS FAST!!!

    at least they aren't 'left lane campers' :x I can't stand it when there is a bunch of traffic in the right 2 lanes and some asshat decides, "I'm just gonna cruise at 50 in the left lane"

    I want to go FASTER! get outta my way!
