<p style="text-align: center;">Ben is right. It’s also true that those who know at least a <em>few</em> tidbits of historical information about whatever they are seeing or doing, find that their vacation is more meaningful than it might have been otherwise.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong> </strong><strong>*************************************</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Here in the &#8216;Fun Facts&#8217; Category you will find information about History.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">These blogs are each presented in a &#8216;bullet point&#8217; style that is designed to give you just a few pieces of information about things that you will potentially see and do on a road trip in America.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Either these tidbits will</strong>:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>help you get the most of your visits</em>, (if you don’t need too much to be satisfied)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">or</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>whet your appetite for more information</em> (about the things that you find really interesting and want to know more about).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Either way, you’ll discover more about yourself and where your interests lie.</strong></p>

<p style="text-align: left;">To help you easily find information for the area you are currently interested in, I have divided the country into 9 Regions.

<p><strong>After you have identified the Region that you are visiting, scroll down until you find the blog for that Region.</strong></p>
