If this were true, I wouldn't be surprised is she insisted on coming, too.
Which means... who's going to deal with
her parents ?
I know ! My wife !
Anyway... really... I would have to really really conjure something upo in order to see everything and go everywhere etc. ...
We visited the SouthWest in June/July 2008 (Paladin and Verslagen will remember
) and my boy was only 10 at the time.
We took a whole lot of pictures, and then some more, and it's nice to look at them from time to time and "gee, remember this place?" and we all heckle on this or that detail.
Sequoia Natn'l Park and Death Valley... and Vegas (we stayed at Circus Circus just off the Strip).
Would we want to go to Vegas again ? Definitely !
Would my son want to go to Vegas ? He doesn't even know
how much he would want to go... yet...
Anyway... crating my own Savage would cost me about $2000 each way...
Renting a bike for a 10thousand mile double Coast-to-Coast would set me back by much more...
Two bikes ?
Really... I'm beginning to think a "sell&buy back" contract might be my best option
EDITI was doodling routes on Googlemaps when I came across THIS at these coordinates:
36.329051,-117.716156
Just Copy&paste them in the dialog window in Googlemaps.
Very odd, it's two concentric circles about 300ft. in diameter.
If I didn't know better, I'd say it looks exactly like
Stonehenge, only buried in sand and/or made in adobe bricks which weathered away...
Europe is chock full of these, they were open air solar temples used to study and determine excactly when solar and lunar dates fell, eclipses etc.
Of course they HAD to build a road across it...
