      In May/June 2019 I took a nice long vacation, six weeks.     
      I traveled all over the country visiting old friends, seeing old and new   
   place.        
     I went from WV to the DC area, up to see a friend in PA (who soon after   
   developed brain cancer).   
      Over to NYC for several days (staying with a friend), up to Syracuse,    
   then to Rochester were I met Jim White (former mod) and Nancy Backus, who was   
   in Memories longer than I can remember.  She died not long ago.   
      Over to Erie, PA to visit an old friend (who has since died).  Then to   
   see friends in MI, down to Hannibal, MO, over to Denver to visit an old   
   friend.   
      I lived in Colorado Springs and Trinidad, CO and spent a few days there.   
      Down to Carlsbad Caverns, over to Del Rio, TX (when I slipped into   
   Mexico and stopped and questioned by Mexican authorities coming back into this   
   country).   
      Then visiting a friend in LA, up to see Daryl, on to IND to visit with   
   Ed Vance who stops by here once in a while, then home.   
      And I did what I always wanted to do, stop and go as I pleased.  No (or   
   few) time limits of being to be somewhere at a certain time.  I didn't   
   mention many of the other places I visited.  That would take a lot of   
   bandwidth.   
      I dislike interstates with a passion and avoided them as much as   
   possible.  I prefer the old two lane roads.  You see more of the country, etc.    
      Would I do it again?  In a heart beat!
