I've been working remotely for years. My wife and I have family scattered all across the US. Once or twice a year we'll take an extended road trip. You can make it from one region (west, southwest, pnw, etc) to the next in one weekend. I drive on the weekend. Make it to a hotel, family members house, or pitch a tent if it's summer time. My wife and kids visit and vacation while I grind it out in a hotel room or coffee shop. Before I hit the road I always stack up as much offline work and documentation as I can in case cell reception is poor and I let whoever I'm working with know I'm traveling just in case the car breaks down on one of those weekend hauls. It's a lot of work, but it's much cheaper, much more laid back, and much less stressful than dealing with airports. It's really nice to not have to worry about flight times. Not to mention, you meet _way_ more interesting people when you're laid up in some off-the-beaten-path town. Wandering the country with no particular timeline feels like a little slice of Americana. Honestly, traveling like that has restored my faith in humanity. We've had car problems, illnesses, storms, and other fiascos over the years. The number of decent, caring people from all walks of life that come out of the woodwork to help a stranger is heartwarming. It makes you realize that most people are mostly good.
