Okay me and my friends were talking and we decided we need to trim or trip a little. Basically want to stop at some of these places on the way there and explore. Can you tell us how long it would take to get there from starting in Upstate New York and stopping at these places.

ON the way there:
Through some part of Virginia,
Nasville Tennessee,
New Orleans,
Part of Texas like a big city like Dallas or Houston,
Roswell New Mexico,
Grand Canyon,
Then to California.

On The way back we want to go through:
Las Vegas,
Denver,
St. Louis,
Kansas City,
Chicago,
Detroit,
Then back upstate towards Albany

Thanks a ton!
Matt and Friends
