Do you use Atlas Obscura or some book of tourist traps or do you just drive places and stop if you see an advertisement for anything even remotely kitschy?

Well, I am sorry to hear about Sonya-and I feel your frustration. As for "None of this should have triggered all of my lingering thoughts and feelings about my recent role as a caregiver, but it absolutely did.", the only good advice I ever got from an otherwise kind of awful person was 'Emotions aren't on a light switch'-care is care, whether two legged or four. Animals can succumb to neuroses same as humans, but I hope y'all can pull her through. Moderately envious at the recent road trip-I was born in Little Rock, and may still have some cousins around Hot Springs, but have not been able to spend more than a few hours there since my grandmother Ball's funeral in '76. (Ozark was a powerful series, but I can understand the locals being less than enthusiastic about it.) Con Dios, Amigo, and say hello to Joltin' Johnny for me.
