The heat's getting to me. I laid down on the couch and watched Food Network instead of caching.
The Brewers played this afternoon, so I flipped through the satellite list. I like Alton Brown's Good Eats, and I knew he had a new show last fall, Feasting on Asphalt. I never watched it until tonight. It was interesting.
I almost didn't notice, but when he arrives at a place on his journey that he wishes to focus on, he puts up the coordinates of the location.
I heard he did a segment of an episode of the new season (which starts Sat.) somewhere in WI. I Tivoed the series, so I'll have to find out exactly where there's good road eats in WI. |

As Mr. Traker loves Alton Brown, had to look this one up. Here's the description for Saturday's show:
A Strong Brown God
Join Alton as he begins his journey along the Mississippi River in search of honest and authentic road food. He and his crew mount their steely steeds at the Gulf of Mexico and start their adventure feasting their way north. |

Aren't there roads leading to most restaurants? |

That's what I thought.
Now I would think that road eats would consist of Raccoon, Possum, Rabbit, Deer, Squirrel, Fox, Coyote, Wolf and what ever "Road Kill" you can find.  |

M.r Brown is my new hero! I enjoy all his shows. I too noticed the coords during the show and the wife looked at me said " Well, now I suppose you are going to put them in your GPS, huh? I told her no I wasn't. Very cool show!  |
