Somewhere with good roads, a sticky temperature (for tyres) and a Ducatti Monster S or Triumph Speed Triple for hire. A week of that and I will consider myself well rested.

I'll have to think about it, but I'm pretty sure it would involve a time machine... :think:

Kind of hard to say...
You see; The Wife :noid: and I have diametrically opposed views on this sort of thing. She likes the beach...I like the mountains. She likes people...I like solitude.
Therefore, if we do what she wants then it's not exactly my "perfect vacation" then, is it?...But if we do what I want...
Well, you know the saying; "If Momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy". :idunno:
So I try not to think about it.

A perfect example of why a vacay should be ONLY for one person.
Mrs. Barbarian, our camera gear, and no schedule to follow. Hills, interesting architecture and a decent restaurant that serves Guinness. Unfamiliar wildlife and unusual geology would be a plus. Mrs. Barbarian would like some shopping opportunities.

That's what I think too but The Wife :noid:, she....Well, I'm sure you can guess. :rain:

An old river town?
Hermann, MO. Founded by German immigrants (largely from Philadelphia). Expected to exceed St. Louis in size. Today, about 3,000 people. Lovely and interesting place.
Named for Arminius, who took out 3 Roman legions, ending the Roman effort to subjugate what is now Germany.
When we went to the courthouse, we thought maybe we might get inside. At the door, someone saw us, and said "Come on in. You're taking pictures? You have to go up on the second floor and see the courtroom."
Mrs. Barbarian's shot:
On the way out, a clerk asked "Do you want to see the old jail?"
It was sort of like a light green dungeon, hadn't been used in years, very dim. But it was cool to see. I forgot how it is in the Midwest, outside of the cities. It's what America should be everywhere.
They had a metal detector at the door, but no one seemed to know how to make it work.

Yep. The real fun is to be in the car with Mrs. Barbarian, and checking out what's over the next hill, in the next town, and beyond.
