Check out this story I wrote for the newest issue of YDR's Smart magazine.

It's all about how to pack for -- and survive (yes, maybe even enjoy) a long road trip. It includes a checklist of items to bring, things to do beforehand, and tips for making the journey go smoothly.

Check it out before you hit the road.

When you get back, e-mail me a photo and we'll post it here, in the "Wish you were here" gallery, as well as on the travel page of the Sunday Lifestyle section of the paper.
