Default Re: Roughing It On An Epic Road Trip

My son and I did a 12 day road trip through Europe in 2004 including seeing the 24 hrs of Lemans. Drove all over Germany and visited all the car factories and Museums. This past June we went to the Olds Homecoming for a quick 24 hr father son get together (he is now 33, Married and a father). Had just as much fun in 24 hrs as we did in 12 days 11 years ago. Next road trip will be with him and his daughters someday. His main concern is Pops (me) gets a little vocal with other drivers habits and he does not want his kids exposed to my verbal wrath.

I am changing my approach to something like this:

"Look girls, this fine gentleman in front of us, who has just been admitted to our wonferful country to start a new life is learning to drive cautiously in the left lane and keep us from speeding and breaking the law. Next time we stop at a store lets see if we can find a drivers liscence in a cracker jack box."
