Turtle, you really wouldn't want to drive 600 miles EVERY DAY for a vacation would you? But, I understand, you're right that some, for any number of reasons, just don't have as much time to "get there". And some of us are blessed (as in retired) that we can enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

No not at all, and for 99% of the time I don't. About half that is my style. For example, bout a month ago I traveled 4,600 miles in 20 days for our summer vacation. Saw lots of great things in our beautiful county and loved every minute of it. That is only a little over 200 miles a day. So believe me, we enjoyed the journey whether going 55mph or 75 mph or anywhere in between.
Now some days we spent 2 nights because there was lots to see in some areas. Some we just drove right one through; nothing to see here! LOL
I hope in 15 years I can be retired and wish in less than 10. Then I can travel around at 55 or 50 or whatever mph and see all of this beautiful county.
Happy travels and good times too you W.E.BGood no matter how fast or slow you travel.
