Planes and trains might get you to your final destination, but there’s just something so darn fun and alluring behind the idea of a road trip...especially with your loves. I love exploring old two lanes with my sweetheart but I also love hitting the road with my 16 year old daughter. I’ve personally taken my fair share of car trips up and down a stretch of Route 66  in Oklahoma so today I wanted to share a few of the tricks I’ve learned along the way. (I actually have shared them here before but instead of linking that post, I thought I would just share them again because they are soooo good.) I will be sharing some of my fave things to do in Guthrie, Oklahoma too!

They are incredibly different. Lin kept referring to our trip to friends as --we are going to Dallas. And I immediately corrected him----we are not even going close to Dallas my fox---we are going to Fort Worth--it's like calling an apple an orange. I seriously threw a good old Texan hissy-fit.
