This is real early in my planning stage, but I thought I'd ask now as I do start planning things.
I'm saving as much vacation as I can over the next 14 months, so that in May of 2009 I can drive cross country in my bus to see my son graduate from West Point (in New York). I'm planning on taking 6 to 7 weeks, and really enjoying it.
This will be my first time to actually drive through much of this country, other than the west coast (and my three trips down highways 10/40 to Kerrville TX!!)
SO, I'm looking for suggestions. Suggested route, suggested places to camp for a night (or longer). Places to eat, play etc. I had hoped to go to the SD rally in September, but unfortunately we're gonna miss it. I've never ever been in that part of the country.
Right now I have only a few places that I know I have to go, other than that, I can take any route we please.
1. I need to be at West Point NY the week of May 18-24, 2009 for graduation.
2. My sister lives nearby in Connecticut
3. I've got to stop at Mango Mikes, either on my way in, or out (or both!)
4. I've got a friend I'd like to see in Nashville.
I do plan on going back through old posts and getting some ideas. But, if anyone would like to share, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!
