We went on a road trip for vacation, from New Jersey up to Niagra Falls, northern PA through Michigan to northern Minnesota. Here's some of things I've learned. We live in a beautiful country - and I don't think I would have appreciated it if we didn't drive through a lot of it. Also, truckers don't make nearly enough money for what they have to do.... of course, they probably don't have to do it with a 3 year old so it might be easier. I just thought I'd share in case you're not appreciating where you're from. I so wish I could live in a less populated area (and have roosters....) with more greenery around.
