We were on a similar road trip Chicago area to California and back in 2010----took 28 days and we drove past a lot of things that we didn't get to see----However, we had some places we had to make at a certain time, and this did not allow us to dilly-dally as long in some places as we would have liked!!!!!!

We left Chicago area on Labor Day and the road part was delightful---not all the summer time traffic and crowds weren't too back anywhere---probably biggest crowd was at Mt Rushmore

I really think that the pioneers in covered wagons had the right timing for the trip---most of a year?????????
