Anyway, with summer quickly moving into full swing, Emma asked me to talk about what I have to have when I go on a road trip. Road trips can be half the fun of a trip, but you have to be sure that you have all of the right things accompanying you so that your drive is as enjoyable as possible.
It took me a while to think about what I typically have on the road with me, but once the juices started flowing, I couldn't seem to stop. So, my road trip essentials are as follows -
A stop at Bucee's to use the world's cleanest bathrooms, stock up on some Turkey Jerky or dried kiwi slices, and to refill my gas tank,

a few of my Banana-Oatmeal-Almond Butter Muffins to keep my stomach satisfied with something that is both healthy, but also satisfies my sweet tooth with the inclusion of chocolate chips,
a couple of Cuties because they're easy to peel and eat while driving,

Aviators to block that strong Texas sunshine,

my GPS to get me where I am going (I am directionally challenged - just ask anyone who has ever been in a car with me),

and a road trip Spotify playlist with the best songs to which you can sing aloud.
That last one doesn't necessarily lend itself to a road trip partner, huh? I enjoy both having someone in the car with me as well as taking solo drives. So while it's so nice to have a road trip buddy (or buddies), I do appreciate a rare couple of hours to myself.
What are some of your road trip must-haves? A favorite snack? A certain playlist? Someone in the car with you? My work schedule this summer doesn't necessarily allow time for a long road trip, but I am hoping to finally make a trip out to Fredericksburg and Enchanted Rock, and you better believe I will have all of the items listed above, as well as a camera and some sunscreen!
