My little daughter learned to walk at the Buchart Gardens. That was during a HUGE road trip. We left Houma, Louisiana (the armpit of the world), travelled through Colorado and Idaho to Vancouver and Victoria Island. Then down the west coast through Washington and Oregon and California, then across the southern states and back to Louisiana. In three weeks. With two kiddies. And I survived!<br /><br />As perceptive and observant as you are, Mr. Pudding, I know that you will see and hear about many changes that have come to our country in the last nine years. In my opinion, most of them not very good. But, "we, the people" are still as generous and loving and interesting as we ever were. So, you and Mrs. Pudding have a wonderful, safe and eventful trip!<br />Peace Thymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17361079101751470855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-21066434590850735492014-05-30T12:37:49.604+01:002014-05-30T12:37:49.604+01:00When I meet people, politics is usually the furthe...When I meet people, politics is usually the furthest thing from my thoughts GB. In every person there is a story. Besides, the essence of socialism is that everybody is worthy of respect and I think this even chimes with the everyday views of those with the reddest of necks.
