How To Get Your Car Road Trip Ready

Taking a road trip can be fun and spontaneous, but there are always a few things that should be done before embarking on any extra-long journeys. Here are some of my tips on how to get your car or truck road trip ready.

Check Your Vehicle for any Problems

There are several problems that can happen when you are out on the road, but if you take some of these steps, hopefully, you won’t run into any!

Before we leave on any trip, my husband checks all of the fluids in the car. He checks the Oil, Transmission Fluid, Power steering Fluid, Brake Fluid, and of course the Windshield Solvent.

Other things you can do are:
– Fill the Gas Tank
– Air up your Spare Tire
– Check to see if your lights are all working correctly
– Look at your wiper blades, and make sure they are in good shape. The last thing you want is to get stuck in a rainstorm with bad wiper blades. Read more

Augusta Canal National Heritage Area:

The August Canal National Heritage Area offers so many different fun events throughout the year, and they also have a Discovery Center, which sounds just as fun as it is educational.

The Augusta Canal Discovery Center at Enterprise Mill tells the story of industrial revolution in the American South and how a city used its waterways to reinvent itself and define its destiny. Located in a former textile mill, the Discovery Center is your starting point of all canal boat tours. Be sure to allow time before or after your cruise to explore the exhibits, view the orientation film in the Rotary Club of Augusta Centennial Theater, and browse the Canal Gift Shop. Discovery Center admission is $6 adult/ $4 senior & student, or free with your boat tour ticket purchase.
