Your go to vacation spots

Go 81 and stop by my place for a beer and then head down to TMC's house for more R&R.

81 is truck alley. 95 is the autobahn

Couldn't be said better.

So I'm driving down to NC in a couple of weeks. Going to be near Greensboro. What route would you all recommend I take from DC. 81, or 95/85?

I'd like a pretty route. But with an infant, I think more important is a baby friendly route
Our son -in-law is stationed at Ft Bragg so we go straight down 95 ,...well we do use 295 around Richmond traffic is bad there but other than that 95 south .As for rest stops I'm not sure what it is you are looking for, if you mean like gas stations and restaurants 95 isn't to bad if you mean the nice little run offs on the side of the highway with a restroom and some place to walk the dog then he is right. Also If I might ....Cracker Barrel....you can't go wrong at a Cracker Barrel.

LOL. Well, maybe 95 might be better then I guess. I don't want to spend all day on the road

Yeah I've been told there's like a 75 mile stretch of 95 with nothing. But is 81 better? Sound like it is, per Chico

81 is much more scenic and you can fly, but 95 should be the shorter trip if dale shitty/nova isnt being a whore with traffic. really depends if your in a hurry, if not 81 all the way.

Greensboro kinda sux though, but Biscuitville is amazing.

SS , if you don't mind me asking where is your starting destination, around DC or Conn maybe?

Dc.

Just went to Michigan (Grand Rapids) and was surprised at how nice it is out there. Not a place I'd like to live but it seemed pleasant enough.

Also drove through Flint to pick up some folks who live there... What a ghost town. The looks reminds me of parts of Durham, NC, kinda run down and downtrodden but other than people in obvious poverty... Nothing there.

My gf's brother (who lives there) said that if you call the cops in Flint, there's a good chance they won't even show up.

The only time I went there was January and I was living in L.A. at the time. I had......no winter clothes....never sooooo cold in my life.
