Stop Flying!! America is truly the land of the beautiful! Drive to your destination and support the American restaurants, shops, attractions, and more! The airlines have overstepped and deserve to go down.They have outrageous costs, violate your freedom (TSA) let us not forget that, and they are happy to implement the mark of the beast shit. I have seen America in its entirety and trust me you only know it by experiencing it. America is the land that inspires songs!

That made me feel good like someone read it and it might inspire them to do a road trip too. I left out so much stuff to not be off putting . We went to Big Bend Park and I saved my sister from being stung by a scorpion because we'd been to a roadside attraction where you put a penny into a machine and a scorpion dummy struck a hand.
We met a Cowboy named Buck Newsom in a saloon and he offered my mom a swig from a whiskey bottle he kept in his boot. My mom didn't drink at all, but to be polite she took a swig. She coughed til she peed her pants. A month later there was an article about Big Bend in National Geographic and Buck Newsom was interviewed. My brush with Greatness.
Good for you ! Follow Route 66 and see America. Freeways are racist (ask Biden ) take two lanes and stop often. It really helps if you have no destination. Free Bird !
We drove when moving from tx to ca and its beautiful. We pretty much drive everywhere now. Better than flying with a 2 yr old anyways. I flew my whole life with my dad working for AA but the experience just sucks now
Funny you should mention Big Bend NP! On our first of 3? trips out west, we went to Big Bend; I was 6. Me and my two older brothers 9 and 11, went for a hike across a ravine from the campground we were in, and climbed up a talus slope to get to a point our Dad had told us "If you get to that point, I'll give you each a dollar". He wasn't aware of how far away things can be, and still look close, when you are in the clear and mostly un-vegetated lands of the west :) We did reach the point, and on the way back, started a small landslide, which we thought was the most hilarious thing for us; sliding down a moving mountain :) Our parents weren't so amused! The noise of the landslide echoed from the cliff behind the talus, back to the campground, where are parents looked on in horror. We did our dollar though :)
