Vacations should be all about fun and adventure, but all too often they can become more like a military campaign, with every stop preplanned and every minute already accounted for.

If you find yourself exhausted after a preplanned vacation, it might be time to take a road trip. In the book “Blue Highways,” William Least Heat-Moon captured the essence of an archetypical road trip, planting a seed of wanderlust in all who read it. But while he was prompted to make his trip in response to a series of personal setbacks, ideally a road trip should be a rolling celebration that allows you to find yourself in the process.
