My 1,900+ Mile Midwest Road Trip
Road trips are fun but exhausting! I recently made a 1,900+ mile trek across the midwest to visit family and friends, attend a wedding, and to do a little bit of exploration in the process. The google map below shows the route I drove.
I took one full week to travel from Junction City, KS and back while making overnight stops in each of these cities:
-
Branson, MO
-
Bloomington, IL
-
Sheboygan, WI
-
Dubuque, IA
-
Topeka, KS
Along the way, I passed through metropolitan areas including Kansas City, St. Louis, and Chicago. I even took on the challenge of driving into downtown Chicago during the noon hour on a Friday! What a joy it was to accomplish parking!
The big cities have so much to offer and I enjoy going there for the photo opportunites and varied cultural experiences. I also like the less-traveled county highways that pass through the small rural towns where life is less hectic. I had a taste of the fast lane and the slow pace on my midwest road trip and now that it is over, it's back to business for me!
Have you had a recent road trip or will you be taking one soon? I'd like to hear about your road trip journeys!
