We are long trippers, meaning each trip is over 2 months long. It begins & ends same place.
MS Streets & Trips 2011 is the main planning tool. We start with a rough route then insert places to see & things to do & firm up the route as things come together. Museums & such can be seen at anytime.
We have to plan ourselves around events we want to see & maybe make reservations for those events. Bluegrass Festivals are our main event to try to make but we are open to most anything else.
Reservations are only made for limited space events, holiday weekends & maybe high demand destinations on weekends. Inbetween weekday CGs, we wing it. No reservations. No disappointments so far operating this way.
