Time issues turned it into a cross-country flight and travels by rental car up the Eastern Seaboard instead.Clayton Cramerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03258083387204776812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-49819413383000823512017-11-22T12:57:29.784-07:002017-11-22T12:57:29.784-07:00Thanks for that, Clayton!

Originally he was to have flown there & back (this was in 1963) but decided that the whole family would drive there & back, zig-zagging across the USA.<br /><br />So we set out in our new 1963 VW Bus, and had a great trip. I had just got my driver's license, so had plenty of opportunity to practice! We stopped at every major (and lots of minor) attraction & point of interest along the way, and came back a different route. We headed more Northerly on the trip there, and Southerly on the way back.<br /><br />The AAA was great: they supplied us with Trip Maps, which were assembled into booklets where the maps folded out as you went along the route previously planned. We had a compass mounted on the dash too, and used it a lot!<br /><br />I miss those days. Travelling was a lot more fun back then. Wish I could've done something like that for my kids.Eskymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15947922645001422523noreply@blogger.com
