If you follow Rt 1A all the way up the east coast, you will never go wrong.. It follows the whole shoreline..I think from state to state.. Wonderful drive.. Slower but lots of beauty and all the old seacoast towns..

And we loooove your posts..so don't ever stop.. You bring back memories of my family to me.. They were very much alike.. My Dad was a hellion too...

Rt1A...that will be easy to remember....especially because on the west coast, its RT1 which hovers along the Pacific coast....its a very, very slow drive, very windy, small two lane road, but its just wonderful, where you get so close to the coast, and go through all the seacoast towns on the Pacific coast....

Tho once just north of Ft. Bragg Ca, Rt 1 simply ends....you can then cross over, through the thick forests, and come out on RTe 101, which then continues along the coast for most of the way, tho often it winds inland...RT101 goes from California, up through Oregon and then through Washington...

BigDom and I love those slow meandering roads, which let you go slowly, and enjoy the whole drive at a leisurely pace...

We have done enough of those fast Interstates....they are great for getting from place to place, in record time, but somehow one misses the flavor of the area, in all that speedy driving....

Once retired, we will have all the time in the world(or at least as much time as God grants us) to take our time and see what there is so see...

No more timeclocks for BigDom to punch, no more having to meet anyones schedule but our own....we can hardly wait....

Your dad and my dad would have probably really enjoyed meeting each other, and amusing each other with their antics...
