Then the kids will want to get out too and it takes forever to get them all to get back in and buckle up.Daddy Foreverhttp://daddyforever.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801451183720597143.post-79579468186759001732009-07-12T23:31:00.653-05:002009-07-12T23:31:00.653-05:00My dad used to make us stop at all of those annoying mile marker signs...I used to hate it...but now I find myself pulling over...just today I did on a bike ride...and even though he is not there with me physically, he IS there in every other way possible!soulmoxiehttp://www.soulmoxie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801451183720597143.post-83764488706910279102009-07-12T15:52:50.352-05:002009-07-12T15:52:50.352-05:00This brings back a lot of memories. I&#39;m glad you&#39;re taking the time to stop on the side of the road with your kids.

He was so deep...so complex.<br /><br />Still...the memory of what he tried to teach me, us, is there. More and more I understand the value behind his words and how his strengths as well as his daily imperfections fashioned the whole of him. They made him who he is...or rather, was...<br /><br />I love what Naomi Munn said...&quot;Detours are all about the journey&quot;. Sometimes we focus so much on the places we are going and the final destination that we miss enjoying &quot;the fluffy white stuff&quot; of life. That kind of sweetness can only be found somewhere in the middle...<br /><br />I&#39;m with Lin...wish I&#39;d gotten out of the car...<br /><br />Sniff...<br /><br />Yer sis, B<br />PS: Wigged Heads, just like Neon Signs FREAK ME OUT!

My constant stops to find geocaches and then getting distracted by what else I find especially old cemetaries and old city parks with historical statues and such.<br />We generally find a mutual accomodation though.Yogi♪♪♪http://www.blogger.com/profile/00411274031147372579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801451183720597143.post-72125301669046769342009-07-11T19:41:41.598-05:002009-07-11T19:41:41.598-05:00@NAOMI - I love photography! I&#39;m very novice though. I have way more to learn than I know. <br /><br />@TR - Very tender comment, my friend. Loved it. I&#39;m very glad I&#39;m not the only one who thinks photos of wigged heads are cool. Seriously, they exhilirate me!jenXhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14420405638287265650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801451183720597143.post-19191634195052320122009-07-11T18:36:40.620-05:002009-07-11T18:36:40.620-05:00Ummm - we piled into the car and went to Arkansas. I was 23 when I got to Disney World - on my own time. 38 when I finally got to Yellowstone - on my own dime and I dragged Dad there to show him what we miss. The upside: 25 years of traveling the world and I have never found a place more beautiful than Central Arkansas - so thanks Dad - wish I trusted you more from the beginning!<br /><br />Those wig photos just make me jump out of my seat with joy. You have a great eye and talent.T.R.http://www.blogger.com/profile/00595967532391171082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801451183720597143.post-11487373191423524482009-07-11T12:38:27.735-05:002009-07-11T12:38:27.735-05:00I SO wish I had your photographic skills -- all your pics are so beautiful.<br /><br />My husband&#39;s mother has no sense of direction, but she LIKES to get lost sometimes. (She says she finds the best yard sales that way.)<br /><br />Detours are all about the journey.<br /><br />Cheers!Naomi Munnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16688722092800128757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801451183720597143.post-76822289174861168562009-07-11T09:45:30.308-05:002009-07-11T09:45:30.308-05:00@LIN - I got out and wish I&#39;d been more genuine. =( Dad probably wishes he&#39;d enjoyed the Matterhorn more.
