I'm curious if anyone has a favorite travel book (domestic, travel essay/travelogue) that inspires them to get in their bus and hit the road?

Thanks and I hope everyone has a happy and safe new year!

Blue Highways - Williams Least Heat Moon
1,000 Place to See Before You Die: in USA and Canada - Patricia Schultz
Road Trip USA - Jamie Jensen

Hope that helps.

Also the DK Guides by State or the US or Canada edition are also inspiring (great photos).

Rand McNally..............not kidding. When we get an itch to go somewhere, after we decide how much time we want to be gone, we look at the various maps of states that fall within a range and start thinking of cities or places we might like to go.

Often our stomach makes the choice, hence the name Oysterfest and Lobstah fest.

We used our scientific book system to pick a spot to meet with our daughter and her husband in March.
