Hmm ok, thanks everyone for the feedback. When I did it on Google maps, there were really only like 5-6 days that had around 7 hours of driving, if I remember correctly. But maybe I shouldn't be basing this off of google maps. It seemed do-able to me, but now I can see that we would be on the go constantly and that's not what I want. The way that I saw it, though, is that if we left at 7am in the morning (or 8) we'd still arrive at our destination at around 2, even with 7 hours of driving. To me that still seems like plenty of time to see a destination, but it obviously depends where. The one thing I am not really down for is driving at night, and there are a few days in there where we'd be driving at night, so I'm hoping to find some way to spread that out. My husband has laid his foot down, and we cannot extend the length of the trip at all. I've already had to cut a ton of stuff out and cutting out more seems hard... but I'm sure I can do it. If you guys could give me some specific ideas of things to cut out that would be awesome, or alternatives for certain ideas. I really really appreciate all your help!
