What Route From Washingto to Texas??

kids · Mar 11, 2002

And boy do I know that route. I grew up in Poulsbo and every year we made the rip to my sisters place in Corpus...I used Mapquest because I know the road numbers have changed. Go to the website and use the road trip planner and enter the cities in the order I listed. In both cases ignore the trip overveiw option...it looks like you are doubling back a couple of times.

The 'direct' route: (2633 miles, 44 hours)

From Seattle WA To: Los Angeles CA, San Antonio TX, Corpus Christi TX

The senic route: (3173 miles, 58 hours)

Seattle to: Weed CA, Susanville CA, Reno NV, Las Vegas NV, Kingman AZ, Amarillo TX, San Antonio TX, Corpus Christi TX

Good luck, we are probably going to drive the family to Byron, OK this spring...we (DH & I) usually fly without the kids but they want to go see their 'bare foot cousins' in AK this year.

OOOOOOOh my God....THANK YOU kids-r-fun!!!!!!!! YOU gave me EXACTLY what I was looking for!! Bless your heart and soul!!!:kiss

I will take the senic route...and Iwill be singing your praises all the way. My daughter wants to see Vegas, and I had met a traveler who was from Kingman, and I couldn't remember how she said to go...but I'm so glad you did!!:)

Poulsbo..huh? I used to date a guy in Poulsbo and would be there every weekend. Taking the Bainbridge ferry and driving across the island to Poulsbo. I even took a dip in Liberty Bay...LOL. I tipped over my kyakak...sp? anywho ..water was cold and nasty..uck:eek:.

Ya'll ain't from the Pacific NW are you? Liberty Bay (us old natives still call it Dog Fish Bay-'cuz its full of them) ain't cold...I grew up SKINNY DIPPING in it. You aught to find your way over in May for the Viking Fest...PARTY!!!

I'm going up for 3 days this August for my 20 year HS reunion.

UFF DA!!!

You know before I took my "drink"..we saw some salmanon...big huge ones...what are "Dog fish"?? Also saw a red jellyfish. And tis cold...LOL!

Can't make the Fest this year...will hopefully be gone at the end of the month.. Thanks for the route and the tip..:)

Dog fish are a kind of shark...kinda small lazy garbage eatting ones, maybe a variety of 7 gill sharks (been a long time since I hung out at the marine science center) the closest they come to biting is stealing your catch off the back of the boat. Back in the 70s some company was harvesting them for export to the UK...seems they make good fish and chips (gag-gag-gag).

Now I'm homesick...and I miss all those sad, fresh young sailors, so far from home and in need of some TLC. D**n to be young and single again!
