Meanwhile, back in our neck of the woods, San Antonio was crowned as the best destination for history buffs,

Really???? What is there besides the Alamo??? Williamsburg, VA should be #1.

The mission trail is pretty interesting, and some of the surrounding areas also, but the history of it all wouldn’t matter to anyone who lived outside of the state.
Willamsburg is a beautiful place.

“Meanwhile, back in our neck of the woods, San Antonio was crowned as the best destination for history buffs,”

Someone suggested Williamsburg.

Maybe. The takeover by NE liberal yuppies is just about complete. At least the pancake house stranglehold has less of a death grip on breakfast. And... Busch Gardens is a seasonal option when boredom sets in.

They are nuts. Memphis is the only city in the state that people should be told to stay away from. I was there once. Never again.

San Antonio was nice. But only for a day or so.

In terms of history, Boston is pretty good. Lots of stuff in town, but Lexington and Concord are up the street. Plymouth is down the street. And for recent history, Foxboro is just half an hour down the highway.

Pittsburgh,PA use to get picked a lot as a #1 city.
Guess they fell out of contention or they stopped bribing the magazine editors?
As well as rt 6 in n.pa as the most scenic route in America.
I wouldn’t say its the most scenic but it is quite nice.
Nice motorcycle ride.

If you want pure history VA is the “old world” to the rest of the USA.
