Now if I could just convince the mother of my children that this would be a 
good idea, across the US on back roads. I have problems getting her to go 
700 miles to visit my parents. She will drive about 50 miles of that trip. 
But hey I was born in '65 so I guess I know one more year's worth of stuff 
than you! But that still is not much!!! :)
