re: Where to stop from New Orleans to Los Angeles?

I think the drive up UNTIL San Antonio is dreadful, but after that it gets interesting...love the desert landscape. I don't understand what people love about seeing the same goddamn greenery and interstate-side gas stations that you can find between the East Coast and Houston (parts of Louisiana are an obvious exception to this, but most of us are familiar with that by now if we're on this board.).
