Trip Planning
Choose the dates of our road trip.
In July and August, be prepared for crowds at the national parks and other popular destinations.
How far is this trip?
How much will the road trip cost?
How many stops are planned?
Find out if there are any special events happening along your route that you might want to see or avoid.
Leave plenty of extra time on your trip to be spontaneous.
Your Car
Check the fluids.
Check the hoses and belts.
Check the tires.
Get any scheduled or needed maintenance performed before you leave.
Don't forget to check the spare tire.
Pack your car with all your gear to see if everything will fit.
Your Family
Take toys and games that will keep your family occupied.
Bring along a few surprises to pull out in case of crankiness.
Pack snacks.
Pack some basic safety items in the trunk.
Bring along some plastic bags and moist towelettes to help keep messes contained.
Do special things you only do on road trips.
Your Home
Unplug electrical appliances.
Shut off the water main.
Turn down the heat or air conditioning.
Check that all windows and doors are closed and locked.
Have your mail and newspapers held, or ask a neighbor to pick them up for you.
Install a timer on one or two lamps, to give the appearance that someone is home.
