Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for June 11, 2024

A slight improvement over talking “sports”.

The 2 grandparents have hair diversity — white hair married to black hair.

L’Oreal

When traveling with three children, the faster the route, the better (also, makes for more time with the grandparents – so, win-win) !!

My son and husband HAVE done this!

Well, yeah, so??

(Mystified at any doubt regarding proper subject matter)

Darryl – “But this route avoids all the ‘Kiddy Traps’ that cost money and result in messes in the car.”

Wanda’s Dad – “Spoil sport!”

So we have established that the MacPhersons live on the east coast some where around Richmond VA. or Montomery, AL.

I-85??? Give me a break! It was a nightmare driving back home.

Now today’s strip is one I can’t relate to. Probably because the interstate is sooo boring. When we were raising the kids we would always take the old highways, the ones that go through the small towns, where you get a little change of scenery. We always planned our trips with this in mind. We would stop along the way and see the little sights, such as the largest ball of twine etc. There are a lot of great little cafe’s and restaurants to eat in, parks to let the kids burn off some energy etc.

This rest area has picnic facilities.

Next up: What kind of gas mileage do you get?

My map shows construction. You had a 35 mph limit and a 2 hour delay here.

How ironic. I’m visiting my sisters today in Georgia. They live right off of I 85.

Google maps takes real time traffic into account. Living in southern California I often turn it on even when I know all the routes so it will adjust accordingly.

We guys sure like discussing weird stuff lol

Hey, at least they get along.

Wanda’s mom must routine go to hair dresser to color the gray.

My father had very dark hair to his dying day, but my mother’s hair went white suddenly in her 60’s. My hair has gone completely white, some years ago, while my wife’s is still long and dark. Who knows? I have done a lot with electronics, maybe my follicles got shocked…

I-85? They’re Southerners? Since when?

Grandpa looks like Wally Walrus
