Fun Detour - Road Trip Soundtrack (Updated Edition)

My very first Fun Detour was the launch of the Road Trip Soundtrack that included tracks listened to on our trips north. For me these songs capture a spirit of adventure, reflection, and the unexpected turns I am sharing with you in Where the Roads Lead.

Since then, you have had the chance to learn more about me and the trips, so I am adding an additional 14 songs to the playlist. I highly recommend shuffling them for the full experience.
