It is time to try again. Aiming for the spring. Driving what? No clue! Having the Jeep would be cool and let me do some dirt bits, but I'm not sure I trust it quite that much, and it's a thirsty bitch. Plus the transfer case is messed up again.
I'm planning on keeping the US-412 run from the Mississippi to New Mexico, but heavily changing the eastern end. I'm not sure what I'm going to do out west yet - I didn't actually use any of the routes I planned last time because of the snow. There were some interesting roads left untraveled near the diversions I took last time, too.
First, though, because I'm a complete nut, I'm going to *write* roadtrip planning software, because Google Maps can bite me.
