I don't know if anyone specifically said they would take him to Yellowstone... I think it was just mentioned as a possible landmark to visit. However, my memory, as always, is suspect!
I really would like to take him to the Alamo, though... I've never actually visited it as a tourist. Rose and I walked past it once, and I didn't realize what it was until we were walking back. I turned to Rose and said, "Is that...?" Yep, it was. It's amazing how the city has grown up around the old mission.
Same sort of thing once happened to me when I was in a car driving through Dallas... we turned a corner onto the Stemmons Freeway, and I suddenly realized we were following the same route Kennedy's motorcade had taken. Kinda spooky, actually!

Indeed! - Living in one of the younger states... There are fewer historical landmarks here, though I can take him to the end of the Oregon trail!
