Khartum

Motorists driving along the sparse, desolate Highway 41 might understandably be fooled into thinking they can pick up some gas and a quick bite to eat in Khartum. It sticks out like a sore thumb on most road maps and for all intents and purposes appears to be a small, thriving roadside community. Khartum is one of those eerie, little places that keeps popping up all the time, only no one seems to know anything about it.
