I have really enjoyed your postings. I have always been fascinated with how people from other countries view ours, and your comments about this country are similar to some of the conclusions I have come to. Your recent posts on Vegas were telling, and confirmed what I have always said, I have no desire to visit. We had our own trip west this summer, and it was our first time driving across the plains. I am glad we got to see the Great Middle, but am even more glad I don't have to live there. Once again, Thank You and where will we follow you next?

GPS's can break down or go wobbly, and it was the hottest time of the year according to the news report. another adult would have been helpful too. There have been news reports lately of people in England going up mountains with no proper clothing, equipment or maps, and the rescue services are getting a bit tired of going out to these people. Common sense is needed here. I take a map when I go shopping in town. (Joking) Anyway glad you OK Geoff, enjoy your much needed break.

Their hospitality has been beyond anything that we could have reasonably expected and has more than made up for any bad service or surly reception that we may have had at places like Las Vegas and Rachel. From my point of view, this is what sums up what I have seen of the US – it is the people not the places that really make it.
