What fun!<br /><br />In spite of the fact that the divider situation was unfair, I remember purposefully moving beyond my region to test your patience. I was such a brat, but at least I was a fun brat, right? ;)<br /><br />Love you too,<br /><br />Robhillyvanilleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16505733718365870779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5207363023068898894.post-64695925729113458152012-03-03T15:14:08.325-08:002012-03-03T15:14:08.325-08:00I also love road trips.

My family would travel out on Route 66 (before the interstate systems) to visit my grandparents in Arizona every summer. What great trips.<br /><br />I'm glad you've joined the Challenge, and thanks for prompting some possible topics for my own future writing.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06549453373381775445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5207363023068898894.post-69259380306076536862012-03-03T12:45:38.064-08:002012-03-03T12:45:38.064-08:00Rob,
You are such a Hilliker. You, Dad, and Chad ...Rob,<br />You are such a Hilliker. You, Dad, and Chad all love getting out on the open road. I remember sharing the backseat too. As I remember, your section was a bit small. It must have been a challenge to sit between Chad and me. Do you remember when we would decide to sleep we'd put pillows on the floor? One person would sleep on the floor, one one the seat, and one up in the window. Oh, the things we did before seat belts. I remember road trips with all of you, and am reminded of them every time I read "My Brother's a Pain in the Backseat" to my class. Imagine being in a backseat now with cushy seating, movie screens, and iPods. Must be rough!<br /><br />I love your last line, "And you hope maybe, just maybe you can stay connected to what's really important when you return home." I think that says it all. Thanks for reminding me of the great times in the back seat.<br /><br />Glad you are joining the Slice of Life Challenge. Perhaps it was a matter of self-defense in case I posted crazy stories from your childhood, but it will provide me a little fun reading in the month to come.<br /><br />Love ya,<br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.com
