Remember when getting in the car didn't necessarily mean you were going somewhere?

For Scott and Angie, some of those memories go back to Sunday drives with their grandpas—getting in the car, heading down the road, taking the long way, and enjoying the ride without needing a destination. Maybe there was a stop along the way, maybe there wasn't. What mattered was the time spent together.

In this episode of Caution Ahead, Scott and Angie take a nostalgic look at the Sunday drive—the memories, the conversations, the family traditions, and why something that once seemed so ordinary has nearly disappeared.

Today, GPS tells us exactly where to go. Our schedules tell us when we need to be there. Our phones compete for our attention. We're constantly trying to get somewhere faster.

Have we become so focused on the destination that we've forgotten how to enjoy the journey?

And maybe the Sunday drive was never really about driving.

Scott and Angie explore what happens when we stop treating every moment like something that needs to be productive. How can we create meaningful Sunday drives today—and give our kids the kind of memories that might someday make them say, “Remember when we used to just get in the car and drive?”

Because sometimes the destination doesn't have to be impressive.

Take the long way with Scott and Angie on No Destination Required: The Sunday Drive, on Caution Ahead.
