Lots of good suggestions, especially about getting off the interstates. I like to use a trip mapping program that lets me down load points of interest (POIs) from sources like the
Discovery Owner's Forum and the
POI Factory. You can then see the icons for the attractions on the map as you are considering a route.
There are also many websites that I have found useful. Here are a few of them:
National Parks,
National Wildlife Rufuges,
State Parks,
Scenic Byways,
Legends of America,
Roadside America,
Ghost Towns,
Slot Canyons,
Pow Wows,
Flea Markets,
Rock Art,
Native American Ruins,
Factory Tours,
Waterfalls,
Scenic Railroads,
State Fairs,
Lighthouses.
