It is sunny and nice here in the west, but that matter's not. This was a
wonderful story. I felt like I was with you as I read it. I love road trips of
any sort, but the kind where you stop in previously unknown little towns and
experience whatever is there are the best. As a matter of fact, I moved to one
after just such a road trip. Life has much to offer if we keep our blinders
off. How wonderful of your dad to share his experience with you and your mother
on that trip. It really wasn't an experience, it was an event. Thanks for
sharing.
