Welcome to The Road We’ve Traveled! My name is Caroline and I love to travel with my family. The inspiration for this blog came in 2010 when my family went on our very first road trip. We wanted to spend some good quality time together as a family and spent two weeks visiting Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. This vacation started our love affair with the national parks and redefined how we spend time together as a family. Since this vacation we have visited 25 national parks and have plans for many more.
I love reading blogs and learning from others’ experiences so I thought I would do the same. I hope that our stories help you in planning your trip and inspire you to make memories with your own families.
