KENOSHA, Wis. — One of the most beautiful things about the United States of America is the diversity of its landscape. In a country so vast, at the turn of a head, at the blink of an eye, rich, intimidating cities turn to sprawling stretches of suburbia; small towns turn to endless cornfields; townhouses turn to farms, villas to cabins; land turns to water, water to land. And we embrace every piece of that landscape — well, most of us do.
Never is this diversity more evident than on Interstate 94, the 1,500-plus-mile highway that connects Detroit, Chicago, Milwaukee and Minneapolis, and stretches all the way to the middle of Montana.
