Then and Now

Then










Now


I have just a few more years until retirement. I am so looking
forward to it. Working on my list of places to visit. Although I
just love Colorado and I'll take a few trips up that way to visit
friends and such, there are so many other neat places to go see.
Over my lifetime I've been through most of the states in the
US except the middle northern part. I was 10 years old when I
took a road trip with my grandmother from N Hollywood CA to
Bangor Maine. We traveled through the south, into Oklahoma,
up through Kentucky and Tennesee, the Carolinas, Virginia and
Washington DC, New York and up into Maine. I remember a lot
of it and I definately learned how to read a map. I was the chief
navigator on that trip. I chuckle today over everyone having a
GPS and when people ask me what kind I have, I tell them I
have one mounted between my ears, a little bit above the
shoulders. Yes, it gives us a chuckle, but when I get ready to
actually hit the road, I'll have a good GPS for real.
