Sometimes, you need to get away. Work is exhausting, your favorite TV sitcoms
have gone off the air, and it’s time to break the mold. Imagine breathing in the cool breeze of an
ocean, or the soothing heat of a morning sun while taking a trip down the
countryside. Road trips are a great way
to embrace the open road to view what our beautiful country has to offer. So, you have the keys, a bag of snacks, and a
couple days to check out your surroundings, but where do you go? In today’s blog, we’re discussing some great
scenic places to visit while you travel.
Overseas Highway – Florida Keys
A highway that spans 113 miles, composed
of roads and bridges from the Florida mainland to the country’s most southern
point, the Overseas Highway is a beautiful place to drive. There’s blue ocean, ships, boats, fisherman
and tourists at every turn. As an added
fact, the Florida East Coast Railway was converted into this awesome highway.
Finger Lakes Region – New York
The Finger Lakes are a chain of lakes in
central New York State shaped like…well, uh…fingers with the lakes formed by
glaciers. The lake extends 75 miles from
Syracuse to Rochester. There’s farmland,
quaint towns and hundreds of wineries.
An Autumn trip adds an accentuating foliage to a beautiful drive year
around.
Pacific Coast Highway – California
This is known as one of the most scenic
views in the world. Hugging cliffs, and
coastlines line a 123 mile stretch in a blissful five hour dream of beauty and
saltwater scents. However, this is not
for the faint at heart. The PCH offers
some hairpin turns, narrow shoulders and steep drop-offs so BE ALERT. Honestly,
take some time to pull over in safe places to really enjoy the vista.
San Juan Skyway – Colorado
This scenic 233-mile drive through San
Juan National Forest, Grand Mesa, is known as the “road to the sky” because of
its mountains, quaint towns and ancient Native American pueblo ruins. The drive features steep cliffs, alpine
forests, campgrounds and plenty of outdoor activities.
