I think you aren't going far out of your way if you hook up with Highway 61.

Probably head east in Iowa to start, then start heading south. 61 gets you to where I-70 and I-64 join; you can straight up avoid 70 and go on 64, which is what you want for St. Louis anyway. Bonus, plenty of small/easy stuff to stop at if you dislike long drives as I do. Illiniwek Village historic site, Hannibal/Mark Twain, WAKONDA! (state park)...  Previous Message
it was such a fucking miserable shitshow I'm making sure to take a different highway down in a few weeks.
and I'm not usually one to remark much on urban blight, but jesus christ
