Who knew such memory magic could be made by cooping up family in too small cars, air-conditioned by rolling down the windows? <br /><br />I will say, though I have fond memories of the car trips, I avoid camping like the plague. Well, wouldn't you if every time you slept in a tent, it seemed to call down a monsoon on the area? Bugging out of state parks in the middle of the night quickly loses its charm, I'll tell you!Elizabeth Seaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08733386945501359383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2268325737702163925.post-30389231502388113742010-09-25T14:23:30.510-07:002010-09-25T14:23:30.510-07:00Hello, hello, hello!

I love your fanciful bird characters in the most enchanting poses. And the hippo! Ah, love.<br /><br />I laughed at your story. Almost sounds National Lampoonish, but in the very best way. :D Gotta love a place that names a creek after an insane female. And the window wiper story! HAHAHA! When I was little, my parents packed us up in a little Toyota without AC and drove from Los Angeles to New York and back again. There probably were times when our parents wanted to throttle us, but some of my best memories are from that very long car ride. <br /><br />Have a great weekend!Bella Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02139728758198482234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2268325737702163925.post-8305098044727593452010-09-25T07:54:48.142-07:002010-09-25T07:54:48.142-07:00Hey, Kelley!

Believe me, they were long trips with strange people, not all of them were in the car with us. Having said that, the journeys were lots of fun and great to look back on.<br /><br />I only dream about cupcakes, too.
