Back while I was traveling around the country in a DIY campervan, I visited over 150 cities and towns in 47 states. In all of them, I always made it a point to visit particular things: science museums, historical places, zoos, and air & space museums. I also like anything that is odd, unusual or quirky.
So, here is a collection of photos from some of my favorite spots that I have visited over the years.
Me, at Barringer’s Meteor Crater, Winslow AZ
Me again, on the set of “Friends”, Warner Bros Studio, Hollywood
One more of me, at the Trinity Nuclear Test Site, New Mexico
