I'm planning a solo trip from Chicago to Roanoke,Virginia to visit my sister... I have a couple of different routes I'm thinking of taking. Any recommendations on paths of travel, stops to do, people to see. Trip will be April 30th departure from Chicago and May3rd embarking on return to Chicago. Curious to get recommended paths from you guys ... i was thinking of heading due east out of the gate with planned overnight in Pittsburgh area ... then head south ...but I'll have keys, gas and plenty of music to keep me rolling ...
