I'm pretty close to death Valley right now. Drove close on the way here. I've always loathed the desert. I like trees, lakes and rivers. Those symbolize life to me. The desert symbolizes death. Especially the Mohave desert.
So sick of BC i wanna puke...........

The Annapolis Valley is another favourite, beautiful part of the country as is a lot of Atlantic Canada. It is on par with the BC interior, for sure. If you Westerners hven't spent time there, you should. It is beautiful along that coast, too. Nature is still in charge there and the people are the nicest in the country.

Not all of them. My daughterinlaw's mother lives in Nova Scotia. Of course whe was born and raised on the wet coast so she has some class.
from your mouth to god's ear. I've always yearned to move to Ireland or Scotland where it is green. I've been a desert dweller most of my life but my ancestors were from where it is green, Seems like I'm drawn to that.
I'm even attracted to those picture of Great Britain that blacklump posts.
We drove through Death Valley about 20 years ago. I remember it was 99F on Oct. 15. in Stovepipe Wells.
I never had the desire to visit that desolate place. I'd been to the Blythe, Indio California desert many times as a kid and it's all sand dunes and really,,,nothing else. At least in the sonoran Desert where I grew up there is some types of vegetation and actually ,,at times when there is lots of rain,,it's very pretty if you like desert. I've no clue why anyone would go to death valley,,,may as well take a vacation to mercury.
It is a false rumour started by the BC tourist Industry. The Beach Combers was actually filmed in Flarida. I don't trust you maybe I should visit BC.
I think Scotland would be fascinating. The history...the peoples who'd lived and died there...
1 reason I know of, is cause you're travelling. My grandparents wintered in Arizona. We were driving there. Get to see lots of interesting things when you're travelling by camper truck. Camped overnight and there was a guy travelling with lion cubs.
My sister tried to steal a jack rabbit. Nobody could figure out how she managed to get up so close as to pick it up and carry it around. I think this was the same sister who'd managed to catch herself a shrew...which wouldn't let go of her hand and so my dad had to smash it's head in while it was latched on. Good times! lol

lake camping
mountain camping
Just imagine the in between camping spots.
Just the wonderment of what it's like at 282' below sea level! There were no fast flowing rivers.

Google earth allows you to walk down almost any highway in the world in a format that is pretty decent. The number of photos is almost endless. You should be able to access the traffic cams almost any place they are installed.
Now you need the VR simulator at home that would allow you to race a car of your choice through a course where you are the only driver. Right down to the potholes of that is your desire. Link up with your neighbors and go out for a night of drinking in Hong Kong. (having a 'team' see 6 screens in one location by 6 different members is a legal advantage or don't get caught'. Put up a cash reward for the fastest time in a variety of 'rides' that react based in test track data that is accurate and the tracks all share different levels so the one on golf carts don't get run over by some racing event. That program also has a flight mode if you want to fly over the Australian outback or the prairies grain fields. The simulator would be based on the trucks that do the hauls and the dust is included as a parameter, as are the roos.
Take a trip and not even leave the farm.
I see Black Sails has started a new season.
These guys are so drunk they they forgot drifting with the current is the right path.

Better yet enter googleearth's flight simulator and fly the valleys and towns.

Urinal overflow?
and the Irish start to get worried.
I'm too busy to visit but if and when the dust settles I'v always wanted to pack the truck and take off, my oldest son lives in Burnaby with my twin granddaughters, someday soon I hope to visit.
...never tried it on Lake Dief, myself. The sailing is crappy in the West, period. Even Vancouver is famous for its "drifters".
