Embrace the open road
Every corner of America has road-trip potential, from its quaint small towns to its breathtaking national parks. And while the open road calls, next year many travelers will be eschewing a long multi-state road trip in favor of a shorter break closer to home. Striking out from some of America's top cities, these driving routes are all doable in a long weekend. Just remember to check local travel advisories before you hit the road, but otherwise, happy planning!
