More seasoned travelers than I know that it's a journey - not simply a destination. Too frequently, I find myself whizzing past a small town. On a recent road trip (in a rental car, unfortunately) we did stop quite frequently. I learned I've got to get off that bike and find the story - or at least the bakery - in some of the towns I might otherwise just hurry through.
One example is Buena Vista, Colorado, where we enjoyed a little police action:

The other is Gunnison where we visited a museum that probably deserved more than the half day we spent at it:

So what towns have you run across that you're glad you didn't miss while on the road?
