While you’re reminiscing, write down or video yourself expanding on what you told us. Explain those moments in your life. Share it with your kids and grandkids.

I've done better than that: my now 11 YO grandson usually accompanies me on my road trips, usually for a Gonzaga basketball game within a day's drive of Dallas.

Nearly 5 years ago, I had the best road trip of my life. We went to Nashville, my two sons and grandson. My wife was terrified that he wasn't safe, but he was fine.

On the way home, we stopped at Sun Studio in Memphis, where Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash got their starts. After the tour, we spent 15 minutes in the studio, he was able to stand on the exact spot where Elvis made his first record.

We also spent a few days in Nashville, going to the Country Music HOF, it was a ball. Just to make sure he wasn't homesick, on the third day, I asked him if he was having a good time.

His answer? YEAHHHHHHHHHHH!!! LOL
