Grandma’s furniture… I love it! Except I actually hate the looks of those square cars. Dorky.

It’s an American tradition – the long drive to the beach on a hot, sweaty day in a car with no a/c so they kee p the windows open.

You got to get an early start to the day if you want to make it to the beach before nightfall.

Needles…haha Snoopy’s brother is from Needles! I didn’t think it was real until I looked it up in an Atlas!My son gave his 6 & 3.5yr olds digital cameras for the trip we did together (separate vehicles). He said it worked. At one stop the 6 yr old (boy) was taking photos of his nose…from the bottom up! A cheap alternative to whining and DVD’s and film cameras.
