NicKats, TOO funny on the Hawaiian!! It was a long trip for sure, it was a long time coming really.....but the experience of the island was great out there...nothing like it! I hear you about the suburban cops, I used to live out here til about 6 years ago, and I had some errr, run ins, so I'm aware of them. Never had any problems with city cops tho, you're right....
Jeph, I'll have to check the name on that road, I used to take it out (if its the one I'm thinking about) to a nice lake out there to go fishing. Pretty wide open from what I remember....and yes! Wisconsin! I used to go up north fishing every year since I was a wee tot. Loved it, went up to Sawyer county around Hayward mostly, but was up around Door county once or twice too. Beautiful area up there, especially in fall with the trees and all...
Southern Illinois around Starved Rock sounds great too....just have to get me a radar detector for the State Police...
