Future Spur 2025-03-07 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Tommy Bailey. Tommy writes, "There are 71 Interstate Highway systems in the United States and the Highway Department wants to add our beloved Cumberland Parkway to their list. It may not matter to some folks but I for one think they should leave it as is. I-65 runs from Chicago to Mobile, Alabama. According to Bing, that's 918 miles of I-65. I don't think they need to add a spur to our Cumberland Parkway and make it an Interstate, besides I don't like the word SPUR because it reminds me of a mean rooster!"

Travel: the best priced room 2025-03-06 - on the road - Photo by Josh Brockman. A great view and it's relaxing to sit around a good campfire and just talk. Did I mention it's also very cost effective, perhaps most important! A $25-$30 dollar spot in a campground sure beats $250-$300 a night room.
