    Philly to Cali - roundtrip! ride for the natives!

    My gs brethren. First, I am not on a GS. But rather strom. However I am long time GS owner and poster here on the forums and I have met a few of you on rally's. I am heading across the states to take photographs of Native Plants. It's a long story and quite involved. Find out more and follow my adventure here at ridefornatives.blogspot.com.

    I just spent the last few days camping through PA national forests and just landed in Erie at a dirty motel. I'll be headed toward Chicago next. Can any of you Ohio Folks recommend cheap accommodations somewhere? camping,etc.

    I'm still sorting out my route but would love the insight from any of you GSRers along the way.

    thanks!!!

      thanks!!!
      Have fun!!

      Detour thru the Ozarks, if you haven't been there before.
      Also, check out some MO BBQ, if you're not a vegetarian
      (I sure miss that, here in the Philly area.)

      Here's one of many good ones, in Sedalia, on Highway 50:
      KEHDE'S BBQ, 1915 S Limit Ave, Sedalia, MO 65301, 165 Photos, Mon - Closed, Tue - Closed, Wed - 6:00 am - 8:00 pm, Thu - 6:00 am - 8:00 pm, Fri - 6:00 am - 8:00 pm, Sat - 6:00 am - 8:00 pm, Sun - 6:00 am - 3:00 pm


      The best burnt ends I have ever had. They even have fried pickles, The King's fav!!

                Of course I heard!!! I search Lakers twenty times a day on Google and have the Bleachers app on my iPhone.

                I'm kinda crazy like that.

                  Maro,

                  When will you be in Chicago? We have a great group of guys and gals here and we could probably set up a get together to meet you. Also, depending on dates, Cathy and I could likely put you up for a night or two.

                  Thanks,
                  Joe
