The best part of the Continental US is the waterways.
Most cities are on the shore; and there's over a 12,000 mile loop of navigable waterways around the East Coast, to the Mississippi River, and up the Missouri River... the Florida Everglades, Boston, the Hudson River...
Islands with nice people are all over the route.
There's old Mississippi paddle boats; and historic boats that make the trip: or you can buy a boat in Minnesota where they're well kept and cheap: then sell it for a profit in Florida.
Skip the hotels and campgrounds... anchor in a secluded bay, without a permit.
There's floating casinos all along the way, with all the crab legs and steak you can eat for less than $10.
I've traveled every Interstate, US Highway, and a whole bunch of country roads in America.
A Salvation Army Captain I know took the Ladies Home League to a camp on Oahu.
In the middle of the night, she took all the women's teeth while they were soaking by their beds... and left a quarter in each glass where their teeth were soaking.
As somebody who finds wealth in the things I can do without, I'm not likely to find myself in that position.
My friend offered me a 650 motorcycle, a goat, a knife, and some other stuff the other day.
I took the knife and lunch in exchange for $20 off the $300 dog he wanted; and he said, I'm a hard man to give gifts to.
He's a millionaire, and tried very hard to give me gifts worth more than the dog he wanted.
I took the knife and lunch; because it was a fair exchange for the $20 off the price of the dog he wanted.
I might take a gift, if I'm offering a gift; but I'm not likely to let anybody know what I want, if it means they might just give it to me as a gift.
It is more blessed to give, then it is to receive.
And, godliness with contenmentment is great gain.
When you want something; but you keep it a secret... if you get it, it feels like a blessing from God.
That feeling that God cares for me, and gives me what I want and need without asking, feels so much better than getting something as a gift, that I practically begged a human being for.
It feels so good, that I love keeping my desires secret, and knowing God will give me more than if I asked a human for what I'd like.
Even if I walk all day in the rain, without sticking my thumb out for a ride: if I don't get a ride... I feel stronger and better for not asking.
It's when I keep in communication with God, and leave no room for people to take his place, that I feel him in my life the best.
In the end... I'll be alone with God. No amount of begging and pleading can stop that from happening: so I practice getting used to it, everyday.
God told me why you're going bald, how you can save your hair... and why you might try dyeing your hair red to make it healthier... if you curious about it.

I'd only go back for a long boat trip.
