And I gotta get a move on before the sun

Leaving in less than a week on this adventure and now I'm getting down to business on this planning ish.

Anyone who lives between here and Kentucky and Florida and the southern east coast, LEMME KNOW and I shall visit you! I'm definitely hitting Louisville, Nashville, Memphis, Atlanta and Charleston. So what should I see there? What should I do? Suggestions encouraged – the crazier the better.

Also looking for great roadtrip snack suggestions, both recipes and the regular buy-it-in-the-store types. I'm definitely thinking trail mix, juice boxes and roadside fruit stand goodies. Anything else from your experience that will make 3,000 miles that more awesome?

Meanwhile, I did a little pre-trip excursion yesterday and I'll end with a little representation collage of the beautiful Belmar Beach, NJ.
