It all started with a question:
A couple of years ago a short conversation took place in our home.
Below is a transcript of that conversation.
Avon: How would you like to take a little ride?
Lou:
Sure. Where to?
Avon: Oregon.
Lou:
Sounds good. How do we get there?
Avon: Go to California and turn
right.
And so it began; another epic
journey across this great country. Here are some of the highlights and a
lowlight or two.
In
the beginning:
To say we began our trip without a
bit of confusion and would be like saying a Chinese fire drill would be
something most of us would understand. After packing the car and leaving most
of our essentials at home, we took off in a cloud of dust and a hardy Hi Ho….
You get the picture.
Our first
night out had us going in circles trying to find our usual stopping place when
we go in that direction. We always stop at a Comfort Inn outside of Amarillo,
TX. It wasn’t there, so we went to a Day’s Inn, only to find that it was the
Comfort Inn a short time before. All this was explained by a man who’s English
was only slightly better than my Pakistanish. He explained that he had bought
the place and changed affiliations – hence the name. What he didn’t explain was
that he had raised the rates and reduced the services and amenities, but that
was to be expected.
stay tuned for further developments
