As I have been sharing the possiblity of our road trip with friends I have discovered that many have suggestions of "must sees" and "skip if you can". I invite you all to give us suggestions.
Though we have never driven cross country, it wasn't unusual for us to fly someplace; and drive hundreds of miles to see a multitude of places. Four Corners, the entire state of Washington, Tahoe to Yosemite; Chaco Canyon, Monument Valley...well, you get the idea. I used to joke that we were driving cross country one trip at a time. This is the first time we may actually DRIVE the whole trip.
The plan is the northern tier states, Oregon or bust. Already a friend suggested the sunrise over Mt. Rushmore. We'll see fireworks there, too.
We are studying maps; travel books; the internet; Diners, Drive ins and Dives; and picking people's brains. Send us your suggestions for things to do and see.
I look forward to hearing from you!
