No, my Dad moved to SoCal after he was in the Army.
We went back to Pa every summer....Drove from SoCal, to Albuquerque, to Oklahoma City, to St. Louis, to St. Clair.....Dad drove every mile because we could not drive yet. Back in the 70's, people drove instead of flying.
Visited family, ate shoo fly pie and went to Amish Country, went to Philly for cheese steak..Phillies games.....Eagles Camp....Did it every summer, it was a lot of fun.
Then, with my aunt and uncle, we headed back to Ca.....A different way every year....North to Mt. Rushmore, straight West to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons...Then, of course Las Vegas for a few days.
I have been in every state of the USA except Alaska.........Good times, great memories.
