Best Parties

[MtnBiker]

Hey guys,

After graduation (high school that is) Summer of 2005 me and two buddies are planning on a road trip. We are going for all of june and july and possibly spill over into august if needed. We already have a fullsize hightop van to use so transportation is not a problem.

However, as far as what we are doing we have no idea.
We know we want to attempt to atleast hit the lower 48 even if we dont do something in each state.
We are starting from just south of Nashville TN.
We are planning on heading south down the Natchez Trace to Baton Rouge and New Orleans and then across the panhandle of Florida to highway one. Then take highway 1 to Maine, stopping in DC and some stuff in Virginia, then down to NY and PA then Ohio, then Chicago. After Chicago we were planning on heading out west along the northern half of the country to see Mt Rushmore etc, the going down the coast of California, and heading back along the central to southern half.

Personally, i think that is do-able in 8-10 weeks but maybe not.

We are going to sleep mainly in the van at campgrounds though sometimes hotels depends on money.

My reason for posting is to ask you all to:
1. write back real quick with one or two things you think would be some of the best stuff to see during a drip like this
and
2. name a couple of the best party spots you know of (keep in mind we will all be 18)
