Driving to Michigan is a story about a family driving cross-country together. It features “boomer” parents who are traveling with their two adult “millennial” children in the confined space of a pickup truck. The story takes place during the time of the Covid pandemic, which adds another level of complexity and hilarity to the trek. While they are all together in the close quarters of the vehicle, the family converses with each other about all manner of topics and current events. This includes subject matter related to individual members of the family as well as to the world at large. Each family member has opportunities to express their own opinions about the world and their place in it. The other family members then have equal opportunity to respond and offer their own opinions. Naturally, boomers and millennials are not usually aligned on how they view and interact with each other or with the world. This is a recurring theme as this conflicted family drives from south to north and then back south again, transporting precious cargo on the way back home.
