Essential Elements for a Fantastic Fall Road Trip There's nothing quite like getting out and about in the fall. From the brilliant, changing hues of the foliage as they contrast with the aptly named evergreens to the migrating geese, whales, and other seasonal species. Fall air seems especially brisk and exhilarating, and early morning frosts turn landscapes into spectacular dreams. Fall also offers shoppers a virtual wonderland as stores enter into their holiday sale events, closing out the summer goods, bringing out holiday present ideas, and attempting to give you just enough of a taste to lure you back for Black Friday. Slow down... before you jump in the ole' vacation-mobile and hit the road to adventure, there are a few details to consider to ensure your time of enjoyment and decompression doesn't become a source of stress and woe. 1.

After a prolonged amount of reasoning, we’ve come to reach an agreement to convey a road trip from New Jersey to California. We chose these two states because of the amount of distance between the two and because of the long adventures that could come along. Even though we know our destination we could not just get up and drive without formulating any type of preparation beforehand. Personally, the best way to fully succeed a non-stressful trip is to formulate everything you would need to know beforehand. With that being said, Byron and I had to research all the possible information we need on this trip. Join us on the journey as we construct and strive to California.

It is easy to desire a change of scenery when living in the same setting for a long period of time, but great opportunities can arise closer than I previously imagined. Tennessee offers a wide range of opportunities in music, the outdoors, sports, and many more, and the more time I spend throughout the state, I will be able to meet and network with a wide array of individuals who provide a unique perspective on life. My travels throughout my home state will also allow me to catch up with friends from high school who have moved on to various colleges and jobs. While it is a dream of mine to set foot in as many places around the world as I can, it is wise to not rush past hometowns or home states, as they greatly impact the direction of each person’s life. This is also a vacation I can take without spending any money on housing and only spending about $240 for a week of travel (as listed in my itinerary/budget below). Nearly every state in the United States has a wide variety of activities to do and places to explore, and it is crucial to appreciate the opportunities that are in close

Whether you realize it or not, you are constantly employing cognitive processes in order to function throughout the day. The term for the study of these cognitive processes is cognitive psychology. Rutgers University defines cognitive psychology as “the scientific study of mind and mental function, including learning, memory, attention, perception, reasoning, language, conceptual development, and decision making”. One area of these cognitive processes is called wayfinding. It contains several cognitive processes such as knowing the relative location of a destination to the starting point, knowing where things are in the environment, making decisions about which destination to visit first, and which route to take to get to the destination.
