I have been tasked with the grueling chore of designing a weekend getaway from Dallas using Membership Rewards points.
I know! I know!
It is pure torture!
I live 20 minutes from DFW airport and would like to come up with something fun, fabulous and a bit off the beaten path.

Go to Gatlinburg, TN by plane. There is the Smoky National Park right there and Gatlinburg itself is a great place to explore.
I say go by car and somewhere that let’s you go canoeing with your husband to the other side of shore and just spend time together.
Go anywhere there is a beach and go by car so you can stop all you want 🙂

Fly to Arizona and drive on route 66
You should go take a hike at the Fort Worth Nature Center and take photographs of the wildflowers.

I strongly recommend Yellowstone National Park. You may want to fly there and rent a car locally. There are tons of fun activities you can do there, sightseeing, camping, observing wild animals…
