Late Drives and Memories
I traveled to Lake Havasu City in western Arizona by way of the Phoenix. We landed into Phoenix at about 5 and drove for 3 hours. Most of the trip was on winding two lane highways in the dark. We could only get 3 radio stations. The first was classical rock, the second a soft rock/pop and the 3rd an oldies station. It reminded me of all the family trips I took with my dad driving and trying to stay awake with Billy Joel on and other oldies. Somehow that late night drive became connected to all the those good memories. It became on of my favorite parts of the trips. Thanks for the memories Dad. And Mom.

I agree, I can't listen to Billy Joel or Carly Simon w/o thinking of a road trip to CA.
well somebody had to stay awake. and it is about time you kids learned good music when you hear it. Anyway music you know and can sing to helps to keep a guy awake. Now it is your turn to make some memories. love you guys&gals-dad
I had to force Dad in here to read and respond. I think he might just get the hang of it. Did you ask Nicole "how much longer"? every few minutes, too?
Glad to see you blogging again!
