I'm planning a 3-4 week mega trip, with the rough plan of:
Portland, Maine (not long) Burlington, Vermont (not long = been before) Montreal, Canada Toronto, Canada Buffalo, NY (not long) Chicago (not long - been before) Milwaukee Minneapolis Sioux Reservation Badlands National Park Yellowstone National Park Seattle Vancouver, Canada maybe Portland, Oregon (not long, spent months in before) Yosemite National Park LA (not long) San Diego Vegas Grand Canyon National Park Navajo Reservation Salt Lake City Denver St. Louis Missouri or Houston/Dallas/Austin Texas then New Orleans after one of the above Everglades & Miami Savannah Georgia then St. Louis if did Texas first, and/or Nashville or the mammoth Cave national park Raleigh, North Carolina (have family here but never been) maybe NYC (haven't spent a night here since a kid, skipping Philly and DC since I've been there recently) then home, going through Albany and my sister's place on way back
Tips? Suggestions? Things to add or subtract? Certain places in these locations to check-out or avoid?
I'm looking on mostly sleeping in my car, at cheap RV sites or overnight parking lots. Cheap meals (I don't eat much), laundromats. No expensive tourism, just see the sights and the free stuff, get a feeling for each area, spend more time in places I like and less time in places I don't like.
So the main cost would be gas, which seems to be about $300 a week. (I'm thankful I can take a long birthday vacation this year, and then just do some remote work in the last week).
