I follow a profile on Instagram called amapaday and I saw this a few weeks ago. It shows a path connecting all lower 48 states, though not overlaid on a roadmap. There are a couple of states doubled (Oklahoma sees the line twice, and Virginia does twice, maybe 3).
Ive tried to write out what routes this line would actually follow. See what you think and what edits you might make. Note, I didnt choose what was the fastest route or the most logical but I tried to see what routes the red line actually followed. Usually I chose what route looked closest to where the line made border crossings or whether it seemed to travel trough the center of a state. I found that in the East there were sometimes multiple options while in the West there was often only one route that would work. I named major or regional cities for most states.
