The murals had a much higher density, which made for some nice "pop out for an hour or two and grab a few more points" type of rides. This year will be some longer rides, so I anticipate a much lower score. But still, any excuse for a ride...

Same with me, ND and SD. Can get the state welcome signs pretty easily. Unfortunately not a ton of cities in those states, let alone NESW ones. Bonus points and South Shore help make up for scarcity.

I like alternating easy vs planning required GTs. Planes/Trains/Automobiles needed some planning. Murals was for sure a "go wander around" type of tour. This one I get to nerd out on spreadsheets and basecamp.
