I can’t believe Will and I get married next week! On Friday, we leave for a two week cross country road trip that starts here in Chicago and takes us east to Pennsylvania, south to Memphis, Austin, Albuquerque, LA, and then north again to Seattle. If you are going on a trip like this too, services like One Sure Insurance can protect you as you travel all around the country. I am so excited to celebrate our marriage with good friends and family along the way! Planning a road trip is the perfect time to start thinking about a new car, although most people seem put off by the costs involved in doing so. This is why many are starting to look at leasing as an alternative to an outright purchase. Somewhere like intelligent car lease might be useful if you are interested in investigating further.
As I mentioned last week, I’ve been trying to squirrel away travel friendly snacks for the road because it is so hard to find healthy snacks in roadside gas stations. These two trail mixes are great for road trips, hiking adventures, or even the office. Both of them are great for keeping your energy levels up while on the road since they provide the perfect balance of carbohydrates, protein, healthy fat, and fiber to keep you feeling satisfied until your next meal.
