You are so right!

Since 2003, every other year I would take one of my daughters on a cross country trip. No real destination, just about 20 days on the road. North trip, south trip, east coast, west coast.

I had left my corporate job in ‘03 and had about a million Marriott points. I have summers off—I am not a teacher, but I work a college sports year schedule.

It was the best time with my kids, whom I was obviously away from during their infant years.

Now years later when I hear them talking about those trips, it really fills my heart.

This is a wonderful country. Stop going to the beach. Stop going on cruises. Go somewhere you’ve never been before. You are missing a lot of great places.

This article just got bookmarked for my trip the year the get out of college.
