Timberlines: Keeping a Road Trip Journal

Keeping a Road Trip Journal

Over at Timberlines, WoodChuck has posted an entry discussing his experience with one of our Journals Unlimited Road Trip journals. Journals Unlimited journals, which are made in the USA using soy-based inks, come in a variety of styles ranging from wine tasting journals to website journals.  Below is an excerpt from the entry.

For this trip I selected the Journal entitled, Adventures, My Road Trip Journal. Each day’s entry has prompts related to who you’re traveling with, departure and destination points and stops along the way. There is a technical data section for keeping track of odometer readings, MPG, gas prices, total distance travelled, and the route taken. Also sections for noting highlights, sights and memorable places visited, where you ate and things to remember for the next trip. The back page is open form for notes and journal thoughts about the day. I’m using it to make notes of interesting things Ginger and I talked about during the ride. Also each year we listen to one or two books on CD, usually picking an old classic. This year’s selection is Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath and I’ve taken to writing down a few thoughts of interesting passages we listen to that day.
