The best way to see America is still hitting the open road in a car! The Road Trip is an iconically-American tradition expressing our spirit of freedom, adventure, and exploration. It’s been said that you must drive across America, not just to experience how interesting the country is, but at the same time, how boring it is. What a great family experience – (don’t make me pull over!). When and how did road trips start? How did the cross-country road trip even become possible? And Route 66, the “Mother Road” – celebrated in song, movies, books and our hearts – celebrates its 100th anniversary this year! Mary Bondarenko holds a B.S. in Psychology, a Master’s degree in Labor and Industrial Relations from the University of Illinois, and a J.D. from Cooley Law School. Since retiring from a diverse career with a Fortune 500 company, she enjoys presenting odd cultural topics that catch her eye.
