OK, I took our first step in planning (Max has been NO help so far)...I'm not really sure where to go in this vast nation, so many choices!
My search began with Choice Hotels 'cuz I love their commercials with "I've been everywhere, man"...they have an "along a route" choice, but it is a little complex...well, it's simple in that you enter a beginning and end, but they show EVERY SINGLE hotel along the route, not spread out...so I'd have to decide which one of the chain's many subchains to stay at...and their 'stay in 2 hotels and get the third free' is complicated in the small print...I don't really understand if you have to stay in the same subchain each time or can mix and match and it looks like the price you pay makes a difference, etc....I will eventually figure it out, but for now, have put it on hold.

In the meantime, I also checked out the KOA website and sent off for their "free" ($6 shipping) 2009 directory of Kampsites including those with Kabins...they too have a "plan a trip" option...again, a straight line with every single option listed...just offering a beginning and end.

I would like to see one where I can enter say 5-10 cities you want to visit and have them show a more circuitous route all at once...you can do it with one beginning, one end, city by city...but that requires a lot more energy than I have tonight.
Max is already snoozing...
