No harm. I agree. It's a big country with lots of odd people to meet. I'm glad to be one of them and glad Bus people are so inviting.

The U.S. has a vast amount of natural wonders and cultural experiences, natural beauty, history, barn sales and fresh veggie stands. Hot springs, covered bridges, massive canyons and rock formations. Joe's Good Eats and Taxidermy. Armadillos, deer, bears, wild goats and burrows. Old gold mines and ghost towns. Glass bottom boats in the everglades and the top of the Empire state building. It just makes me a little sad when an American has no interest in our own cultural riches and just wants to jet off to Europe. Europe is fascinating as well, but I just think we are often too quick to dismiss the wonders of our own back yard.
