Good stuff Matt, as always. I've pivoted in my travel habits lately too. After a career where I had unlimited frequent flyer miles and Hyatt points I'm far happier driving with a list of podcasts to learn from. I love the flexibility of car driving and lack of airport delays and rigid planning. Two weeks ago I drove Chicago to Cleveland to Phillie to Charlottesville, VA to Atlanta to Nashville to Chicago and had a great time and seeing lots of family and friends with an award winning cheesesteak thrown in! As for National Parks I still have a few to see but hiking down and up the Grand Canyon and camping three nights in between will always be a top memory for me. Keep up the interesting writing and sharing.
I'm similar to you -- after plenty of air travel, I'm enjoying road trips these days. Just did 22 hours from Michigan to Florida ... I (kind of) enjoyed that drive.

Gorgeous photo of the Miner's Falls' trail. Got the peace vibe of it way over here!
Thanks Rick! It was a great day.
Beautiful landscapes, beautiful family!
Thank you Chris -- appreciate you!
