I just returned from my annual trip from West Virginia to So Cal via Amtrak. As always I write about this trip. It includes my 8 days on Amtrak but also all activities over the 4 week trip. It's long and I do this for myself and friends but open to all. Link is below and just click on the 2017 link inside. You will also find hundreds of photos from the trip. Thanks!!!

I often ride the Auto-train to Florida. I wish they had extended the service to places like Denver or the West Coast.
