Hey, if it was me… i’d go to jambase.com (since most of my roadtrips have always focused around seeing somesort of music at some point). I’ve always planned trips around shows i want to see, and then filled in the blanks depending on where we’d be driving through. I’d also leave room in your itinerary for lots of wiggle room. Some of the funnest times I’ve had on roadtrips have been at random spots you stumble upon along the way, and are not well advertised or touristy. I’ve traveled the Nation a few times over with only an atlas and good friends. Rest assured that all you need is an adventurous, positive attitude and traveling buddies you can trust. Also- Take advantage of KOA!!
