If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.
~ Lewis Carroll
- - - - -I love road trips. I like to drive and see what there is to see and take my time and make stops when I see interesting things. And there are interesting things all over the place. And beautiful things. Funny and curious things. Even sorta scary things. And I enjoy almost all of them.
When I was a little kid I used to get car sick. So did Erik. That made road trips not so much fun. I remember we had a little bag of special toys that we only played with when we were going on car trips - usually to visit my grandparents in Rake, IA. I remember that if I ever saw that special stuff when I was at home, I would get queasy.
I think that my parents were trying to create a bag of fun that would make our car trips go more quickly since we were kind of whiny about the car sick thing. Instead they created a bag of nausea triggers. Oh well, you can't win them all. I do however know some people who can whine them all. They're buckets of joy, let me assure you.
