Big Book of Travel
Something I did before our first winter as snowbirds was to make what I call my Big Book of Travel. I used the computer searching for various places we might need along the way. I made complete lists by state that were on our route south. My lists were, WalMarts, Truck stops, Cracker Barrels, Misc. resturants, rest areas, sites we might like to see, and my favorite, Wineries. I put it all in a big binder, dividers by state with tabs for each list. The lists were in alphabetical order by city making it easy to find. I co-pilot the motor home and keep the book handy. If we need to find a certain fuel stop all I do is go to the book. I know it could all be done on todays cell phones but it sometimes is quicker for me to look at the book than try to type in all the info. It did take be awhile to put it all together but worked on it a little at a time so when we were ready to hit the road it was done. I have updated pages a few times, even written in some places we have found along the way. You can make it as detailed as you like. Just something I did.
