This week I'm on the road for work. It reminds me of the long road trips that my family would take from the southern desert to the rolling hills of southern Idaho. We usually did it over the course of 2 days. One day took us to my great-grandmother's house and the next day of travel to grandma and grandpa's house. My parents used every trick in the book to keep us entertained on those long trips.
Some of the the things we did: played the alphabet game by trying to find our way through the alphabet on billboards and signs; searching for significant landmarks; learning songs together; coloring books; fruit snacks; and sleeping.
Oh, those were the days. I can't believe I ever made it that far as a kid. I have brave parents. I think I must have spent quite a bit of time sleeping. I bet they were glad when the technology started to help (game boy, tv's in the car, portable music players, etc.)
