I spent the night in Hammond not too long ago. Ate at a great Cajun place near a strip mall by the interstate. I think it's called the Cajun Kitchen (sorry, I'm not much help). It's a little hard-to-find joint where you order off a wall and sit in one of the restaurant's two or three tables...

Don't wander off the beaten path in Cozumel.

This is interesting. Is there any town without a Mexican place called El Charro? There are at least two around me that I know of. I don't think it's a chain.

My guess would be the MVC... Can't help you too much with Des Moines. I'm not real knowledgeable of Omaha, either. Omaha has its dangerous parts, though. For its size, Omaha seems to have a lot of crime. Downtown isn't too bad. Omaha is the culture center of Nebraska -- whatever you think...

Says the guy who just spent a day in Pokey with a certain moderator... :D

I hope I am, too. If you know what I mean... ;)

I can't speak much for Route 66 through Missouri. (Although I have traveled it, and it's very nice. There's an interesting museum outside St. Louis if you're into transportation history, etc.) Route 66 cuts through Kansas in the extreme southeast corner. There's not too much out that way unless...

I know this sounds stupid, but any for Alaska... anywhere in Alaska? l'm going there soon...

Why? ;) For its size, Wichita isn't all that great. Maybe I expect too much from Kansas' largest city. But, if you must find something to do, Towne East is the only mall in town. Don't even think about any other place. Towne West isn't comparable. Rock Road has some good eats (Olive Garden...

I crossed the border at about 11 p.m. local time. I have never been more nervous in my life. That is, until I can back into America a couple days later. Massive amount of cars. One guy, who had no legs, "walked" up and down the line of vehicles begging for money as cars passed through the...

Not counting El Paso, I don't have any experience with southern Texas. But I hear Corpus Christi is a nice place to visit -- given it's not spring break. Dallas is decent. I haven't been there often, but the West End is the place for mainstream dining, night clubs, retail, etc. Maybe I'm a...

The Hill is the best memory of my dealings with St. Louis. If you enjoy Italian food, that is the area to check it out.

Johnny's Po-boys on St. Louis St. is excellent. Prices can be a little high, but a good po-boy can be hard to find in the Quarter. Great for lunch. There is a really good place in the Garden District (close to Archie Manning's house), but the name escapes me at the moment. Maybe someone will...
