Fresh Air and Freedom
Grab your best friend or friends and plan an epic cross-country road trip this
summer. Before hitting the open road, you’ll want to make sure your
vehicle is in excellent shape. Spend a few bucks getting an oil
change, tire rotation, and having the vehicle inspected for any looming
unforeseen issues. Once you hit the road, there is no looking
back. Pack lightly, but ensure you have the appropriate gear that
suits your needs for the adventures you plan on having. Set up a
loose travel itinerary but allow yourself flexibility in your plans so that if
you are enjoying one location or experience, you can just live in the moment
and not have to worry about your plans being thrown out of whack. Warm
wool blankets are
a must for every road trip during any season. Be prepared for
a day when you don’t quite make it to your next campsite and you must sleep in
your vehicle! Fresh air and freedom are abounding as wanderlust sets
in and an amazing experience is set in motion.
Camping
Camping on a road trip is a
must. Whether you find yourself at the beach or in the mountains,
having a lightweight camping tent, sleeping bag, warm clothes, and heavy
wool camp blanket will
allow you to be comfortable no matter where you decide to set up
shop. Be prepared that most National Parks will have campsites that
need to be booked months in advance, especially the more popular parks like
Yosemite, Yellowstone, and Great Smoky Mountain to name a few. These
national parks do have first come first serve campgrounds, however, you will
need to be at the campsite bright and early to obtain a spot. Once
you’re at your campsite, kick up your heels, read a book, have a campfire, share
stories, and gaze at
the stars.
Friendships and Experiences
Between the long hours in the vehicle, sharing
stories around a campfire, and experiencing the beauty and natural wonders as
you make your way across the country, you will find yourself building strong
relationships and memories with your friends who made the journey with
you. Along the way, you are sure to meet new friends as well.
