Pittsburgh was my favorite place I’ve ever lived. I’d go back in a heartbeat.

Ehh, PNWers in their Subarus are the ones that camp out in the passing lane 5-10 mph under the already-too-low speed limit and then randomly slam on their brakes for even the most gentle of curves or the slightest hint of rain. At least the Californians drive a sensible speed.

I’ve found Missouri drivers to at least make a moderate attempt to respect the idea of keeping right except to pass. The tourists coming to Branson, though, make even PNWers look like Mario Andretti…

Eh, Missouri drivers are nowhere near as bad and unpredictable as Florida or Washington/Oregon drivers.

I live in Ozark, so Busiek is my go-to as it’s only 15 minutes away from me. But I’d drive much further to go there if I had to—it’s an excellent collection of trails with lots of variety.

Agree with this list. Hercules Glades is worth the trip, too.
