<h2>Six Thousand Miles of Back Roads Part2</h2>
<p><a href="https://thebobdavispodcasts.com/six-thousand-miles-backroads-part1-bob-davis-podcast-1135/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Above all traveling six thousand miles on backroads across 15 states in sixty days is a mega trip</a> and I&#8217;ll tell you all about it in Part 2 of this series. Details in Six-Thousand-Miles-Backroads-Part2-Bob Davis Podcast 1136.</p>
<h2>Florida</h2>
<p>Firstly we&#8217;ll start in Florida.</p>
<p>Where the most compelling evidence for over crowding and over development is getting kicked out of a state park&#8230;</p>
<p>Of course not to mention the traffic&#8230;</p>
<p>And expense of the so called Sunshine State.</p>
<p>Secondly take Florida off your travel list in season.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.floridatoday.com/story/news/local/environment/2016/09/15/study-predicts-third-florida-land-covered-development-2070/90361044/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Undoubtedly Florida is overdeveloped.</a></p>
<p>However there are less populated and more quaint parts of Florida worth visiting and spending time.</p>
<h2>Georgia</h2>
<p>Hence we move on to Georgia</p>
<p>Certainly the Saint Simons Cumberland national seashores are beautiful.</p>
<p>For example Jekyll Island, Saint Simons, and the rest of the <a href="https://www.exploregeorgia.org/article/a-guide-to-georgias-coast" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Georgia Coast</a> has a lot of history.</p>
<h2>South Carolina</h2>
<p>Then in South Carolina I discovered some great dusty beach towns.</p>
<p>But I am not going to name those towns because I don&#8217;t want to see them ruined.</p>
<p>Otherwise they are there.</p>
<h2>North Carolina</h2>
<p>Subsequently the North Carolina coastline was fantastic</p>
<p><a href="https://www.wikiwand.com/en/North_Carolina_Highway_179" target="_blank" rel="noopener">For example highway 179&#8230;</a></p>
<p>and Ocean Isle Beach, Oak Island on out to the Carolina Beach.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.ncdot.gov/travel-maps/ferry-tickets-services/Pages/default.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Finally the Ferries are low cost and so much fun.</a></p>
<p>Thereafter-Emerald Island, Atlantic Beach and the rest of the Outer Banks.</p>
<h2>Ocracoke Island</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.visitocracokenc.com/first-timers-guide-to-ocracoke-island/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Especially Ocracoke Island.</a></p>
<p>In due time you get on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Carolina_Highway_12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Route 12</a> which goes all the way up to Kill Devil Hills.</p>
<p>All in all The national Seashores keep these areas from being over developed.</p>
<h2>The Old Dominion</h2>
<p>Afterward I headed to Virginia on some personal business.</p>
<p>Most importantly here is the fact that I lived in the Old Dominion State for ten years at one point.</p>
<p>And Virginia has some great back roads.</p>
<p>Eventually I left Richmond headed up 460 to <a href="https://thebobdavispodcasts.com/birthplace-of-country-music-museum-bob-davis-podcast-1134/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bristol, Virginia</a>.</p>
<h2>Tennessee</h2>
<p>Presently I left Bristol for Tennessee. Details again in Six-Thousand-Miles-Backroads-Part2-Bob Davis Podcast 1136</p>
<p>By all means the best of the latter parts of this trip was the navigation.</p>
<h2>Using GPS Doesn&#8217;t Make A Road Trip</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/maps-cartography-skill-1.6871726" target="_blank" rel="noopener">It must be remembered that most people enter a location on their GPS.</a></p>
<p>Eventually hitting start and driving on the Interstate until the GPS tells them they have arrived.</p>
<p>All things considered using GPS on the Interstates just isn&#8217;t any way to travel for me.</p>
<h2>Maps</h2>
<p>To this end I love maps.</p>
<p>And navigating with maps.</p>
<h2>Nashville</h2>
<p>In short I navigated to the Nashville area without all the traffic.</p>
<p>Because Nashville is booming.</p>
<h2>Civil War History</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.nps.gov/civilwar/search-monuments.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Equally important is the amount of Civil War history in this part of the country.</a></p>
<h2>Death and Destruction Monuments</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt17279496/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">That is to say it is food for thought considering popular culture these days.</a></p>
<h2>Kentucky Does Not Like Shoulders</h2>
<p>Accordingly I moved onto Kentucky which does not like shoulders on its roads.</p>
<h2>Illinois</h2>
<p>Then Southern Illinois.</p>
<p>As an illustration of the superiority of maps over GPS it&#8217;s easier to make changes in your travel plans.</p>
<p>Because you pull out a map and look for a route to emerge to a new destination.</p>
<p>Thus I headed North to the Chicago area to see friends.</p>
<h2>Navigation</h2>
<p>At this point another tremendous feat of navigation coming up on 51.</p>
<h2>Cairo</h2>
<p>On this occasion I came across Cairo, Illinois.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/illinois/abandoned-town-il/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">To begin this town is so beat down it was actually shocking.</a></p>
<p>In fact there&#8217;s a reason. Listen to Six-Thousand-Miles-Backroads-Part2-Bob Davis Podcast 1136.</p>
<p>(Editor&#8217;s Note: <em>Some might blame flooding for the problems in Cairo but there&#8217;s more to the story.</em>)</p>
<h2>Neenah Wisconsin</h2>
<p>In time I came straight up through Wisconsin to <a href="https://www.neenah.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Neenah</a>.</p>
<p>In conclusion much of this experience has been and is like a dream and now it is onto Western Wisconsin and rest!</p>
<p>And I wouldn’t have it any other way</p>
