homefree3 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I am taking a car trip with my 7, 8, 10 yr children this month. We are driving from Nashville to Calgary the last few weeks of June. I am looking for great stops along the way. I am flexible on driving a little out of the way but mostly I am looking for a direct route. The current ideas are St Louis "City Museum" and Mount Rushmore. I need more ideas. Instead of surfing the web for hours I am turning to the you ladies for help.

happi duck Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Our family really loved the Crazy Horse monument. It's near Mt. Rushmore. Roadside America is a fun website that might be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happi duck Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 OMW - this is fantastic! Thanks! Yay! You're welcome! We have found some fun things via that site. Even some in our own area that we didn't know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wintermom Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Yellowstone is awesome! I think it would be much more fun for children than Mt. Rushmore. Glacier National Park (Montana) and Waterton National Park (Alberta, right across the border) are both very beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom in High Heels Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Wow, that's a long way! Step 1: Buy airplane tickets Step 2: Board airplane Step 3: Arrive in Calgary a few hours later Step 4: Breathe a sigh of relief Just kidding! Sort of. Seriously though, what is the route you're planning on taking? If we knew that, it might help to give you ideas that are close to your route or not too far out of the way. The STL museum is great.
