What's out there to see

Well figured I should start blogging to see if I can gather information on my upcoming travel venture. I am headed to Arizona sometime in Dec. Crossing over from Canada and hoping to spend a few days in Nashville. Has anybody got an advice about what I really should see and also what are the best places to eat other words where can I get the best bang for my buck seeing my buck is looking sad compared to the US$. I will be driving.

Well if you coming down I 81 or I 95, it makes a difference. Avoid all the Northern end truck stops in NJ on the I-95 turnpike. Lots of inner city folk cruising those parking lots looking to find something to take. It isn't too bad after the Turnpike ends and it just becomes straight I-95 in NJ, but really nothing great till you hit the Delaware line.

I 78 to I-81 I would think about Middleway Truck Stop in NJ. Any of the Flying J or 78 truck stops. Frying Pan truck stop restaurants. Etc.

Seriously, follow the big trucks. Many of those drivers earn only a few cents a mile and spend their money on best value. Look for big truck stops with wall to wall trucks. Coming from Canada I don't know if you will have a CB radio, but if so, good old channel 19 can be a useful companion on that run.

Thanks Namaron - OH yes the one thing I will go to is the Grand Ole Opry. Maybe I will find more things to see there and spend more time.
