Charles Kuralt - Why we travel the Back Roads,

There is no point in being in a hurry.
Many of us started out traveling long distances in a hurry to see the National Parks. After 50 years of traveling by car, truck and RV I like to avoid tourists and hang out with local people. The slower you go the more you can learn. OUtside of Reno and Las Vegas, Nevada is just one big back road. Some of the state highways are still dirt.
