Joe and Diane's "See The USA Trip"
The start date for the trip is September, 03 2003. We will be traveling by auto (Jeep Grand Cherokee) from Mays Landing , NJ to California and back. The estimate trip time is 6 to 8 weeks. We will be taking a northern route on the way to California and a southern route on the way back. The plan is to log daily trip information, with pictures, on this web site.
In order to make the trip a little easier I bought a Global Positioning System (GPS). This unit should make trip routing and destination finding a little bit easier. The GPS is a Garmin Street Pilot III Deluxe. I will generate a report after the trip is over to let everyone know how the unit performed and my view of its usefulness.
