Once again, neat pictures, neat message, very neat trip! Thanks for taking the time to blog so that so many of us (even many who are not leaving comments) can enjoy the experience you all are having. You are building memories that will continue to bless you all for the rest of your lives (I would refer to our trip to CA in the summer of '78).
