That was our mantra the entire trip.

After a long weekend in LA, we embarked on an 11-day road trip across the western US, visiting seven National Parks.

While the National Parks are obviously incredible, the drive itself is full of stunning vistas that make the trip consistently enjoyable until you reach Texas, at which point everything looks like Texas.
