Our map is as follows:

1. Time is not of the essence, unless it is to waste some.

2. We are not afraid of roads that are not part of the Interstate Highway System....but, time is of some essence.

3. I told him this new used truck better have a working A/C, so Routes Unlimited!  (Early August time frame.)

4. Probably starting in the Bay Area, but Seattle is a possibility.

5. Must stop in Columbia, MO (his aunt and uncle)

6. Must stop in Charleston, SC (giving another Mid a ride)

7. Must end in Annapolis, MD 'cause he signed his life away.

Preliminary route (until it changes, perhaps per suggestion here):

San Mateo
Sonora or Tioga Pass
Death Valley (if this truck sucks, better to know now I say)
Viva Las Vegas
North Rim Grand Canyon (bucket list - I've never been - unbelievable)
Route 66 - Gallup, NM; Amarillo, TX; OKC (with a side pilgrimage to visit my grandmother's grave in Gotebo, OK); Tulsa; Joplin, MO
Columbia, MO
St. Louis (pilgrimage to Arch because my dad stabilized it back in the day)
Memphis (Highway 61 Revisited)
Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
ATL
Charleston
Annapolis

Before his buddy needed the ride, we were toying with actually going through Canada.

TIA!!

jacketree, I suggest that you travel through Louisiana and Alabama with your Stanford wear prominently displayed.  LSU and Alabama fans owe Stanford's football team big time.  You and jacketree jr should eat well and not have to pay at any restaurant or bar.
