Jessie Adkins dreamt about running away ever since moving to the nothing-ever-happens town of Newton Berry as a precocious primary-schooler.
                
         Ellis Adams dreamt of road trippin' across America ever since his next door neighbour Jessie invited him in to watch Ghostbusters after school, kick starting a love affair with movies.
                
        Now that college is over and with University looming in September's shadow, the pinky swear promise made years ago to travel together across the grand old U S of A before adulthood rains down responsibility finally becomes a reality. 
                
                Diners, drive-ins and dives are all part of the plan. As are Ellis' long list of movie locations, decidedly dicey motels and America's fattiest, fast foods.
                
        But all the rest?
        Not so much.
