Few things in life can match the experience that comes along with a road trip across America. No matter what your goal may be, there are always plenty of sites to see, things to do, and people to meet along the way. It is one of the situations where the journey is truly just as much a part of the experience as the destination. That’s why no road trip would be complete without a few road side pit stops. Next time you are planning a trip to the Grand Canyon drive, don’t fly! And when you find yourself ready to get out of the car and stretch your legs, try stopping at one of these three unforgettable pit stops.
