Before I retired, I had toyed with the idea of backpacking from coast to coast through the United States. My trip would start from San Francisco on the west coast, heading south to New Orleans (Louisiana) and San Antonio (Texas), and then north towards Washington DC and New York, before ending my trip in Boston, Massachusetts.

The plan became a reality in 2017 in a month-long road trip by trains and buses, as well as self-drive.
