The great American road trip consists of the following:
- a vehicle (car, truck, RV, or motorcycle preferred--- a bike, if you're truly hardy);
- people to drive & ride in/on the vehicle;
- a map or GPS (go with the map--- more adventurous);
- stuff in the back (usually a little luggage of some kind & a cooler full of snacks);
- some way to pay for gas &/or food;
- a source of music;
- a lot of patience;
- a halfway decent sense of direction;
- an excellent sense of humor;
- an even better sense of adventure;
- & a destination.
I have gone on many of these in my lifetime; the latest, to visit friends Melina & Fred in California this month--- a very happy destination! The list above should be comprehensive, but perhaps I have forgotten something. If I've forgotten something, this is typical of what happens on a road trip--- something is always forgotten, usually shampoo or toothpaste. Did I forget anything?
And on your road trip, where would you like to go?
