Some of the best N.A. routes are said to be; 1. Icefields Parkway from Jasper to Lake Louise, Canada 2. California North Coast, 3. Crater Lake National Park, Oregon 4. Stowe to Smuggler's Notch, Vermont Long or short, a road trip is always a great way to relax, unwind and stop wherever, whenever! Have you been on any of these routes? Like to go? Or do you know of another fabulous road trippin' routes to suggest? -------------------- ~Susie 'Yesterday's the past and tomorrow's the future.
