Great River Road Plus (Again)
|
I know you've heard this before! Tomorrow (Thursday) is the day. I'm headed out for this year's road trip. I'll likely be near St. Louis, MO, by the end of the day. My plans include most of the Great River Road I haven't seen, mostly in Louisiana and some in Mississippi. Plans also include 21 National Park units, both along the river and in Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Indiana. And, there's more. My plan includes 100 "stops" along the way to see more attractions. I'll let you know about my travels. Here's the link to the preview of the trip. The Driveby Tourist "Team." |

This bold move led to a pivotal victory in the Battle of Trenton, a turning point that breathed new life into the American Revolution. Today,...
If you’re in Seward, Alaska, on July 4th, don't expect a standard road race. If you are visiting Alaska for any reason, why not see this race? Whether you are here because it’s Alaska, or if you are on a 50-state quest, or you just love Alaska, check it out! The legendary Mount Marathon Race 🏔️is one of the oldest and most grueling traditions in the U.S., but there’s a catch: it isn’t actually a marathon! While a traditional marathon is 26.2 miles, this race is only 3.1 to 3.5 miles. However,...
Sorry, it went out on Sunday. By mistake! However, since you are a subscriber, I'm sure you know about visiting all 50 states? Of course, it's a common theme in here. One of my daughters just joined the All Fifty Club. She has 36 states ( you need 35 to join.) But you can sign up for the newsletter any time. Another daughter believes she has 35 or more but needs to count them and sign up also. My oldest daughter (I have three) believes she's at 34. I'm going to tell her that I'll help fund a...
