We are thinking about taking a trip to visit my sister for a few days in Arizona. After she starts back to work, I’m toying with the idea of staying out the week and maybe taking a road trip out there? See the Grand Canyon and other parts of the southwest we otherwise wouldn’t?
What do I NEED to go check out?
Background- one of our favorite vacations (besides WDW- duh!) was a roadtrip through Wisconsin, South Dakota, and into Wyoming. It was beautiful, peaceful, and we learned a TON. We saw Devil’s Tower, film locations for Dances with Wolves, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer State Park, Taliesin (Frank Lloyd Wright’s original home and school), House on the Rock, Field of Dreams, The Corn Palace, Wall Drug, the Badlands, Minuteman Missile Site (National Monument), Jewel Cave….
Would it be worth going out there from the midwest just to get away for a few days? My sister is moving to Chicago (driving distance for weekend trips) in the fall, so I’ll see her soon enough if we decide not to do this trip.
What do you think?
