I get a little sad when I think about it. My parents managed to take my brother and I on A LOT of major vacations, driving cross country in our 72VW Westfalia. Most major sites, you name it, I have been there. Alaska, DC, NY, Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Mammoth Caves, Worlds Fair in British Columbia 1986, the list goes on. My brother and I thought nothing of spending an entire day at a museum. The older I get, the more I realize how fortunate I am to have seen (and remember most) of these places. I make a good living, but with the incredible cost of living where I do, the economic downturn, and cost of towing a trailer, we will never be able to take our kids everywhere I have been, but I hope to get them to some of them, most likely will be this side of the country.
