Hi all,

My wife, 5 year old son and I are doing a road trip, and would love to get
some advice on places to see, time needed, and any other words of wisdom.
Unfortunately the VW's are going to have to stay home for this one.

We are picking up a 25' RV in Chicago and we will have it for about 18
days. We need to drop it off in Las Vegas. We are leaving Chicago on Feb
16, probably in the later afternoon, so not sure how far we will get that
first day.

My first thought was to head down to Nashville, Memphis, and then head
towards Austin, but my wife thinks we may want to spend more time out in
Arizona and the Grand Canyon and that those few extra days would be better
spent further west.

How long do you think we need at the Grand Canyon? Some itineraries say 10
days. Is it going to be too cold to do a lot? What are must see attractions?

From the GC we will head to Southern Cal to spend a few days with family.
From there, my hope is to head north on RT 1 to Santa Barbara, and then
head east across Death Valley (and hope our timing is right for the
wildflower bloom). Finally, we'll head to Las Vegas to spend a day, and
then return the truck.

Any great places to camp around Santa Barbara and Las Vegas? Any advice
will be greatly appreciated.
