Yeah, I can see that being entertaining for about 15 minutes. Maybe not
even that long. After we all take pictures next to the "Welcome to Dodge,
North Dakota" sign I think we'd be out of things to do. I know the bikers
like to invade a small hick town for the shock value, but I think they
generate a lot of their own entertainment (not all of it really
family-oriented or even necessarily legal). Perhaps I'm mistaken.
Actually, the same goes for Four Corners itself. There's some really neat
stuff in the general area, but from what I've heard there's nothing at
Four Corners other than a marker in the ground that says "congratulations,
you're in 4 states at once." After Jon does his running in circles
demonstration, we'd pretty much be done there. Maybe they've built it up
since my latest information.
Let's keep the ideas coming, though.
