Epilogue

I think that the idea of ​​a pop song-themed trip started to form in my mind at that time, as I was planning this cross-country road trip across the United States, one of my bucket list items.
Visiting the towns featured in "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," cities famous for pop songs, and places associated with pop music legends will add meaning to your cross-country trip.

That's how a 75-day road trip across the American continent begins, traveling to the cities featured in the music of my dreams, with my wife, my life partner and reliable travel companion.
