Houston, Texas
Houston is the perfect place for a long weekend getaway, and embarking on a road trip here makes it easy to explore the destination’s multiple distinct neighborhoods, especially when you consider that this city is so huge.
Stops at the Space Center and The Galleria are a must, but having a car allows you to explore some off-the-beaten-path locations like the National Museum of Funeral History and The Beer Can House.
Travelers can also get in tune with Mother Nature at Gerald D. Hines Waterwall Park or Buffalo Bayou Park. Alternatively, you may want to drive a half-hour away to Lake Houston Wilderness Park in nearby New Caney.
We promise you won’t regret this affordable road trip destination!

This information is interesting if you live on the East Coast! The only place close to the PNW is Old Sacramento and we used to live about 40 minutes from there. Granted it is a great place to visit along with the Capital building. But a bit of a drive from here to there. Thank you for the information = maybe next time you can include some places closer to the PNW – there are lots of nice areas in Idaho!!
