Planning the Route

At this point in our planning, we have pretty much determined our route around the USA. Of course things can, and probably will, change.


We started with family that we’d like to visit, which in our case has a nice spread across the country, Arizona, Colorado, Ohio, Arkansas and Maryland, also Texas and Kentucky, but we can’t do them all :( . Then we looked at possible routes between these stops, and checked for sites along the way we’d like to see.

We knew that we’d like to visit as many historical sites as reasonable along the east coast, as we have never been there, and may not ever get back with the kids again. We also have several ancestral sites along the way to visit. Throw in some national parks and a bit of Laura Ingalls Wilder, and we have our route.

Here is the state by state plan:
California, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio, New York, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York again, Pennsylvania, Maryland, D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Arizona, and back home to California. Whew!
