This is an amazing experience. When I graduated from high school my dad and I drove from Michigan south through Missouri, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and west through Texas and Arizona and Colorado to California and then back up north through South Dakota and Minnesota back to Michigan. I think we hit 19 states in a little over three weeks, seeing family and friends and major landmarks along the way. There’s nothing like stopping at roadside diners and parking at random gas stations to make your own sandwiches and seeing one state turn into the next and how different they are. It’s the one trip I’ll never, ever forget!
