Road trips are among one of my cherished memories from childhood. In the summer of 5th grade, we drove our new Camry from Houston to New Orleans to Washington D.C. to Philadelphia to Atlanta and back to Houston. I don't remember too much, only things here and there, but I remember my parents decided to take the scenic route. That was my first time seeing the Appalachian Mountains or mountains in general and it was the most beautiful landscape I had ever seen. The '95 Camry is now my car, and though it has nearly 200,000 miles, it still gets me around Texas.
