Great American Highways Worth Exploring

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....
A perfect vacation to some people is anything that lets them lounge around for a handful of days doing nothing at all, but for many others, a perfect vacation is any in which they are able to "do" something and "see" lots of things; if you fall into this second category, you should realize that one of the best ways to "see" and "do" things is to explore the length of a great American highway - and because of the manner in which this country developed, there are a lot of great choices in this area!

New England is among the most picturesque parts of the country - especially if you travel there at the right time of year - and if you want to see New England in all its beauty, there is nothing better to do than drive down Route 1; Route 1 stretches from the top of New England to the bottom, hugging the coast most of the way and leading you through rocky coastline, rolling hills, and the bases of the great White Mountains!

Of course, if you are on the other side of the country, there is an even more famous Route 1, and that is the one that hugs the coast of California; this Route 1 - which most people know as the Pacific Coast Highway - is one of the most popular roads in the country, and while you will typically start in either San Francisco or Los Angeles and end in the other, everything in between these two cities is gorgeous views of the Pacific ocean from a road that closely hugs the curvy coastline of California.

And Route 66, which was the original road to California, is perhaps the most historically significant road in America; Route 66 begins in Chicago, and it runs south - crossing through such cities as St Louis and Tulsa - before finally turning to the west and running all the way to Los Angeles, and it is a road that is well worth the trip for anyone who loves a long drive through the heart of the country.

Of course, there are great things to explore even in your own backyard - no matter where you live - but if you are looking for some adventure on a larger scale, you cannot go wrong by taking a trip down any of these historic American roads!
