Road Trips (PDFs)
To Iowa and Back Road Trip 2023

I headed out to the Midwest to visit family. Along the way, I checked out a wide variety of sites, from dinosaur bulges to Frank Lloyd Wright, Pullman cars to French colonial settlements, Buffalo Bill to Laura Ingalls Wilder, the Garden of Eden to Popeye.
Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico Road Trip 2022
After driving out to the Dallas area for a family event, I took a sightseeing trip on my way back home, with stops in downtown Dallas, along Route 66, and in the dinosaur country of northwest Oklahoma and northeast New Mexico, with a number of other stops thrown in, too.
Great Plains Road Trip 2021
Fully vaccinated for COVID-19 but sporting a medical boot for a broken bone in my foot, I set off on a road trip to Iowa to see family. On the drive out there and much moreso on the drive home, I checked out the scenery and a number of interesting stops in the Great Plains state.
Cross Country Relatives Road Trip 2019
On a cross-country road trip to see family, I checked out a mix of places that featured geology sites, archaeology sites, dinosaur sites, Republicans, nuclear missile sites, corny sites and the Jolly Green Giant.
Cross Country Relatives Road Trip 2018
In October 2018 I took a road trip from Las Vegas to the Midwest to visit relatives, making a handful of deliberate and ad hoc sightseeing stops along the way. On the way back home I spent a few days in the Moab/Green River area of Utah to visit Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. Unfortunately, rain, local flooding and snow limited some of my sightseeing.

Here is a summary/photo set from the October 2016 cross-country road trip I took to visit relatives in Texas and the Midwest.
