Spring Cleaning

SKL — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 12:59:45 +0000

Had to knock some dust off the travel legs. The Biggest Butte Travel experts have been trapped in a viscious web of day jobs, grant writing, and low-carb dieting. That doesn't mean we haven't been traveling. Glorious Delta and New Jersey photos will be up soon - along with a story of Pig Races and a write up of how not to get murdered in a rest area.

Come back soon!

We fully support cultured and curious travel here at The Biggest Butte which is why our first link is to a NY Times article about rare books and US Libraries.

There are still plenty of areas in the US with colorful fall foilage. Look at CNN's Late Season Hot Spots it is part of their series American Road Trips which is a great year-round resource.

Speaking of gorgeous fall trees, if you are anywhere near Arkansas, now is the time to visit - peak color season. In other Arkansas news: President Obama has big plans for Trail of Tears markers in the state.

Frommers online has a great article on specials and new routes for Amtrack. Some examples are 40% off a second ticket or 20% off certain routes.

If trains aren't your thing and you dig hanging out at airports check out these fabulous and strange airport attractions.

Map news: First Map To Show US now in Library of Congress.
