We haven’t done a real road trip in years, although we used to enjoy getting in the car with no real obligation except to get to our destination. In October, we’re going to a wedding in Chicago, and we’ll have time to make a two-way road trip of it.
So, help us out with ideas for towns or food along the way you think we might stop at, sights we might see, and even just modern tips for enjoying a road trip!
Thanks!

I’d make a loop trip of it, customized to your personal interests.
One loop would take me up to the beautiful Niagara peninsula — see the falls and other sights, perhaps visit your family in Toronto, the dip down through Detroit area to Chicago.
On the other loop I’d personally make a point of seeing the Rock n Roll Hall of fame in Cleveland.
Do let us know what you decide.
