P-town can be fun, but a 3000+ mile road trip?

it's the most famous east coast town in Sierra Nevada. For some reason

It’s the end of route 6. That’s why it’s the town listed.

Well if you come through salt lake there's a few of us Mainers in the same apt complex. You can stop and say hi!

I love this. I moved to SLC in the 80s from NH and meeting someone from the northern New England neck of the woods was a homecoming. We were always so happy to find each other in such strange land. Every time.

There was a small group of us, mostly from NH and sometimes one or two from ME, that used to have orphan thanksgiving with lobster as the main dish. We'd have them shipped in and, even after the trip, they were more active than those sad, mostly dead critters in the tank at Smiths. Yeah, there'd be turkey as a side dish, but it was about the homecoming so, lobster. Good times. Miss that place.

Newport, Oregon - 3365 miles to Boston! Sadly, much of 20 is now on interstate highways. Route 30 is better for a cross country roadtrip.

Near Bishop, CA. Between Sierra Nevada and White Mountains

Nice! I just looked up the sign from Cape cod that I remembered. It shows Bishop, CA right on it 😁

Off subject…but why do so many Maine plates end BE*? I’m always looking for the BEN plates

Maine issues license plates with some sort of numerical order, they aren't randomized.

My plates end in "YN" and I've seen numerous other plates with similar number schemes followed by YN.

Years ago, the parking lot at my high school had seven or eight 70XX RZ plates. It got to the point where I was looking for 70XX RZ plates every time a car went by, just in case I found another one.

2700 =/- miles from San Fran to PTown... Rt 6 must be a long and winding road.
