FOREWORD
May I state, at the start, that this account of our motor trip from
New York City to San Francisco is intended to be not only a road
map and a motor guide for prospective tourists, but also to interest
the would-be or near motorists who take dream trips to the Pacific? It
sounds like a rather large order, to motor across this vast continent,
but in reality it is simple, and the most interesting trip I have ever
taken in our own country or abroad.
There are so many so-called “highways” to follow, and numerous
routes which, according to the folders, have “good roads and first-
class accommodations all the way” that hundreds of unsuspecting
citizens are touring across every year. I can speak only for
ourselves, and will doubtless call down the criticism of many who
have taken any other route. On the whole, it has been a revelation,
and, to my mind, the only way to get a first-hand knowledge of our
country, its people, the scenery, and last, but not the least, its roads
good, bad, and infinitely worse.

THE START
After reading “By Motor to the Golden Gate,” by Emily Post,

published in 1916, I was fired by a desire to make a similar tour. This
desire grew into a firm determination the more I re-read her
charming book. Then the United States went into the war, and self-
respecting citizens were not spending months amusing themselves;
so all thought of the trip was put aside until the spring of this year
(1919). Then the “motor fever” came on again, and refused to yield
to any sedatives of advice or obstacles. After talking and planning for
three years, we actually decided to go in ten minutes—and in ten
days we were off. All the necessary arrangements were quickly
made; leasing our home, storing our household goods, closing up
business matters, getting our equipment and having the car
thoroughly looked over, and all the pleasant but unnecessary duties
occupied the last few days. Why will people write so many letters
and say so many good-bys, when a more or less efficient mail and
telegraph service circles our continent? But it is the custom, and all
your friends expect it—like sending Easter and Christmas cards by
the hundreds. We are victims of a well-prescribed custom.
It is always of interest to me to know the make of car that a
friend (or stranger) is driving; so let me say, without any desire to
advertise the Packard, that we had a new twin-six touring car, of
which I shall speak later on. I believe in giving just tribute to any car
that will come out whole and in excellent condition, without any
engine troubles or having to be repaired, after a trip of 4154 miles
over plains and mountains, through ditches, ruts, sand, and mud,
fording streams and two days of desert-going. And let me add that
my husband and I drove every mile of the way. It is needless to say
that the car was not overstrained or abused, and was given every
care on the trip. In each large city the Packard service station
greased and oiled the car, turned down the grease-cups, examined
the brakes and steering-gear, and started us off in “apple-pie” order,
with a feeling on our parts of security and satisfaction.
The subject of car equipment, tires, clothes, and luggage will
take a chapter by itself. But let me say that we profited in all these
regards by the experience and valuable suggestions of Mrs. Post in
her book.
When we first spoke to our friends of making this trip, it created
as little surprise or comment as if we had said, “We are going to tour
the Berkshires.” The motor mind has so grown and changed in a few
years. Nearly everyone had some valuable suggestion to make, but
one only which we accepted and profited by. Every last friend and
relative that we had offered to go in some capacity—private
secretaries, chauffeurs, valets, maids, and traveling companions. But
our conscience smote us when we looked at that tonneau, the size
of a small boat, empty, save for our luggage, which, let me add with
infinite pride and satisfaction, was not on the running-boards, nor
strapped to the back. From the exterior appearance of the car we
might have been shopping on Fifth Avenue.
We extended an invitation to two friends to accompany us, which
was accepted by return mail, with the remark, “Go!—of course, we
will go! Never give such an invitation to this family unless you are in
earnest.” And so our genial friends joined us, and we picked them up
at the Seymour Hotel in New York City, at three o’clock, Saturday,
July 19th, and started for the Forty-second-Street ferry in a pouring
rain, as jolly and happy a quartette as the weather would permit. Our
guests were a retired physician, whom we shall speak of as the
Doctor, and his charming, somewhat younger wife, who, although
possessing the perfectly good name of Helen, was promptly dubbed
“Toodles” for no reason in the world. These dear people were of the
much-traveled type, who took everything in perfect good-nature and
were never at all fussy nor disturbed by late hours, delays, bad
weather, nor any of the usual fate of motorists, and they both added
to the pleasure of the trip as far as they accompanied us.
It had rained steadily for three days before we started and it
poured torrents for three days after; but that was to be expected, and
the New Jersey and Pennsylvania roads were none the worse, and
the freedom from dust was a boon. We chose for the slogan of our
trip, “It might have been worse.” The Doctor had an endless fund of
good stories, of two classes, “table and stable stories,” and I regret
to say that this apt slogan was taken from one of his choicest stable
stories, and quite unfit for publication. However, it did fit our party in
its optimism and cheery atmosphere.
With a last look at the wonderful sky-line of the city, and the hum
and whirl of the great throbbing metropolis, lessening in the swirl of
the Hudson River, we really were started; with our faces turned to
the setting sun, and the vast, wonderful West before us.
II
NEW YORK TO PITTSBURGH
One of the all-absorbing pleasures in contemplating a long trip is

to map out your route. You hear how all your friends have gone, or
their friends, then you load up with maps and folders, especially
those published by all the auto firms and tire companies, you pore
over the Blue Book of the current year, and generally end by going
the way you want to go, through the cities where you have friends or
special interests. This is exactly what we did. As the trip was to be
taken in mid-summer, we concluded to take a northern route from
Chicago, via Milwaukee, St. Paul, Fargo, Billings, Yellowstone Park,
Salt Lake City, Ogden, Reno, Sacramento, to San Francisco (see
map), and, strange to relate, we followed out the tour as we had
planned it. With the exception of a few hot days in the larger cities
and on the plains, and, of course, in the desert, we justified our
decision.
As I have stated, we drove 4154 miles, through sixteen states
and the Yellowstone Park, in thirty-three running days, and the trip
took just seven weeks to the day, including seventeen days spent in
various cities, where we rested and enjoyed the sights. As time was
of no special object, and we were not attempting to break any
records, we felt free to start and stop when we felt inclined to do so;
on only two mornings did we start before nine-thirty, and seldom
drove later than seven in the evening. In so doing, we made a
pleasure of the trip and not a duty, and avoided any unusual fatigue.
The first evening we reached Easton, Pennsylvania. We were
glad to get into the comfortable Huntington Hotel out of the wet, and
enjoyed a good dinner and a night’s rest. We followed the Lincoln
Highway to Pittsburgh, and have only praise to offer for the condition
of the road and the beauty of the small towns through which we
went. Of all the states that we crossed, Pennsylvania stands out par
excellence in good roads, clean, attractive towns, beautiful farming
country and fruit belts, and well-built, up-to-date farm buildings. In
other states we found many such farms, but in Pennsylvania it was
exceptional to find a poor, tumble-down farmhouse or barn. The
whole state had an air of thrift and prosperity, and every little home
was surrounded by fine trees, flowers, and a well-kept vegetable
garden.
The worst bugbear of the motorist are the detours. Just why the
road commissioners choose the height of the motoring season to
tear up the main highways and work the roads has always been a
mystery to me, and I have never heard any logical solution of it. We
were often told that no work to speak of had been done on the state
roads through the country during the war, and in many places the
heavy army trucks had cut up the good roads until the ruts left turtle-
backed ridges in the center, not at all pleasant to bob along on. But,
in view of what we encountered later in our trip, I look back on the
Pennsylvania roads as one of the high spots and pleasures, never to
be undervalued.
From Easton we drove in the rain to Harrisburg. The scenery
was beautiful. The Blue Ridge and the Alleghany Mountains loomed
up in the haze like great cathedrals; but as long as the road was
wide and comparatively smooth we enjoyed the ups and downs. Our
engine told us that we were gradually ascending; the mist would be
wafted off by a mountain breeze, and then a gorgeous panorama
stretched before us as far as the eye could see.
We found Harrisburg a busy, thriving city, with well-paved
streets, attractive homes, and many fine buildings. The leading hotel,
the Penn Harris, was turning away guests; so we were made very
comfortable at the Senate. Here the café was miserable, but we
went to the restaurant of the Penn Harris and had an excellent
dinner at moderate prices. We have found that at the largest, best
hotels the food was better cooked and much cheaper than at the
smaller ones. Usually we had excellent club breakfasts from forty
