Planning a road trip, or any other project with multiple variables, is often an exercise in flexibility.

The historic port city of Savannah, Georgia beckoned as we burrowed deeper into the southeastern United States. Our chosen route departed from Columbia, South Carolina and followed US-321 through sleepy little towns, past many abandoned and dilapidated buildings, and along cotton fields stretching for what seemed like miles into the horizon on both sides of the road. We deliberately avoided I-95 simply because barreling down the highway mile after tedious mile isn’t an appealing travel option for us. Back roads…
