Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for July 09, 2019

but there’s great scenery for looking out the window!

from where I live, three more hours means that you’re still in Texas!

But if you fly too high, you will miss out on all the scenery you could have seen at ground-level.

Mom always brought activity books so we would not get bored. I did not travel well until I learned to ignore them and look OUTSIDE THE CAR.

Wonder how he would manage if they didn’t have a moon roof….

My dad used to keep me and my brother entertained with a game of “Alphabets” – watching roadsigns for A, then B, then C and so on. Quaker State Motor Oil was always a prize (QRSTU). What was annoying was that he was watching the road, and would still usually win!

Once upon a time, Burma-Shave entertained everyone on log trips.

Haven’t seen wild biker Rose but 2 times this year. The last was May 31. Maybe she is off riding her Harley.

A VERY long time ago, my mom found these car games for us. They consisted of a layered cardboard card covered with little sliding plastic “doors”. Under the clear plastic was a picture of something that you might see out on the road. Winner was the one who opened all her windows first.
