So I’m going to pass along my hints, tips and tricks to those of you who may be leaving for the first time (or who just want a few more hints about travelling).

Formerly a list of 27, but there's always more to find. A collection of what are undoubtedly the best album covers ever.

Let’s say you’re west bound traveling through Wyoming on I-80. Your car is almost out of gas and you’ve been traveling this long, boring, winding road for what seems like eternity. Your car has been buffeted back and forth from winds that both suck and blow. You’ve seen more empty prairies, dirt, semis, sagebrush, antelope and cattle than you ever wanted. It’s getting dark and you’re not sure if you can stay awake much longer. There’s a sign up ahead that says “Rock Springs 20 miles.” Sounds ...
