That's awesome Block.

It's funny that you seemto have the same feel as me and that is to just live life and have fun doing it.

My mom called me today and said that I paid her the greatest respect that can be bestowed on a mom yesterday. I asked her what she was talking about and she said that when I told my brother (while he was with her) that it was time for another grand adventure but this time we are taking our Mom.

I was referring to a month long trip that he and I took in 1993 that had a goal of seeing as many national parks as we could hit in one month. We were on a tear and managed to hit 13 of them and absolutely loved it. It was our best vacation ever.

But we didn't have all that much money and we were living out of a pup tent out of the back of my old Toyota pickup truck. But it was magic how fun it was.

Mom asked me if I was serious and I of course said yes, but this time we won't be going the southern route as brother and I did last time. We'll go north and this time we are taking my 40 foot rolling barn with horses and it has a gorgeous living quarters on it too so mom won't be unconfortable.

Fuel will kill my wallet, but it doesn't matter because the only thing that does is my family. I'll pony up for that thrill ride.
