We left early, packed only necessities, and took our time. You shouldn't be afraid to stop, relax, and check out the sights. It takes the stress of being on the road...well, off!
We enjoyed all there was to see (and sometimes smell (cattle!)) traveling south.
The jokes kept flowing. Keeping a good sense of humor on the road is the key to maintaining your cool!
Money saving tips:
- Travel with someone and split costs.
- Eating on a budget doesn't mean eating crap. Though I'm not the biggest advocate for fast food, Wendy's does make their salads fresh everyday and they use pretty good produce! Pack up the car with high protein foods and energizing liquids before you leave.
- Bring coupons with you. We scored some buy 1 entree get 1 free Chipotle coupons before leaving. Yes!
- Stay with friends. Skip the hotels and check your Rolodex for people who live near the major roads. We are beyond grateful for the friends who opened up their homes to us!! And boy was it luxurious to shower in real showers. And by real showers, I mean showers not in the kitchen.
