America the Beautiful

· By DollarB44 · Published 2024-07-03T21:24:45.170Z

Happy Independence Day, America! This puzzle is an updated version of one of the first crosswords I ever made ... I finished the original exactly 20 years ago this week! It is inspired by the words of the U.S.A.'s "second national anthem" and my love of maps and geography. If you're not familiar with American cities and highways you might want a map or atlas handy while solving. I hope you enjoy it!
