Some conscious decisions, up front...

We have to bound this excursion with some practical limits on time and scope. We live in Richland, WA, and we will have no more than 20 days to spend on this road trip. When investigating potential routes, it quickly became apparent that we would not be able to provide due time to the Northeast in one trip, and that we would need to devote a second targeted vacation to that region of the country some other time. So, we have taken the Northeast, from DC to Maine off the table for the road trip in 2008. Further, we decided - subject to change as we progress with planning - that we could bypass Chicagoland and the Upper Midwest entirely, as well.
We do have some loose goals - the trip should include:
The working route appears below. Please offer any and all suggestions for either key attractions along this route, great eats, or route variations. Keep in mind that this route has been constructed to take 19 days on the road, so we can't add time anywhere. If you suggest changes, they need to net out against the balance of the trip.


"Loose" route - not all stops are indicated.
