Have you ever driven across the United States by yourself? Why did you? Do you have any cool stories?

Drove from Baltimore to Denver and driving through Kansas felt like an 8-bit Atari game where the same scenery kept going by over and over again.
Most amazing road trip was Denver to Arizona and driving down Interstate 25 on a cloudless new moon night and getting 50 miles ...

... south of Trinidad where there were no major city lights within like 100+ miles. Looked out the side window of the car and saw these weird clouds. Got out and it wasn't clouds, it was the fucking Milky Way. I was blown away in awe -- the stars were so vibrant...
...never saw anything like it growing up in the NE where there is a ton of light pollution. It was definitely up there with profound religious experiences -- my brain couldn't take in what it was seeing. It was like I was watching a special effects CGI scene in a movie. Amazing.
