[JONAT] SECTOR ROUTES

[Mark Stephenson]

I wouldn't want to have to scope out three spots for dinner and two spots to
stay. I'm going to keep it simple on my sector. 

I'll have recommended stops for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and
recommended lodging for the night. If people want to find nicer or less
expensive lodging or food stops, I think it should be up to them. Of course
nothing is stopping anyone from doing more on their sector. I may refer
people to the website of a locale (most have them now) for additional food
and lodging options.
