My mom and I used to Road Trip to California every year to see my sister in San Francisco, from Northern Missouri. I, being too young to drive, was the navigator. My mom had a brain freeze on knowing right or left in directions....so for 2000+ miles I would have to look at the map and point in the direction to go...same thing on return trip....This was prior to a viable Interstate System.
I remember going to Kansas from Michigan on the old highway system several times with my parents, and on vacation to South Dakota. We sure saw a lot more then than we do now on the Interstates.
