Next Adventure: I-40

Avoiding Insanity on a 30 Hour Drive

My dear sister, Megan, is flying out from Greenville to spend the next 4 days with me along I-40. Several years ago my dear friend, also Megan, and I pointed her white Jetta west and headed along I-90. Over the following years I found myself moving about these latitudes; lots of I-70, a bit of I-80; crossing from one side of the country to the other. This week, we will get to know another of these interstates, a southern route. We'll see how the rest stops compare to Ohio, how the truck stops compare to Pennsylvania, the scenic overlooks compare to Utah.

But why let your muscles atrophy sitting for hours and hours on end? Only a strict deadline warrants this, which we don't have. So in light of our mutual interest and love for yoga, we will stop in some of the major cities to visit studios and explore the urban scene. (Urban? How do I do that?) Check out the map to see some of our ideas for stopping.

Know anything interesting to see or do along this route? PLEASE let me know!
