"You're travelling the wrong way,"

Ride to the end of the line.  Henry Ford Museum.

I am often asked how I came to be in New England if my folks live in Michigan. 

I blame them. 

They started it.

Dad's entire extended family, for the most part, live in the Indiana/Illinois area.

Mom's entire extended family live in Nebraska.

Mom and Dad met in New Mexico, (good ole Los Alamos Labs).

They had my older Brother in Ohio.

4 years later they had me in Tennessee, (did I mention they lived in Calif., in between?).

4 years after that they had my younger Brother in California.

5 years later, (post "man on the moon"), the space industry went kaput, so off to Michigan.

This of course, is leaving off locales with WWII service and College/University.

So, we travelled often to visit Family, usually by car or rail.  Vacations, of course were always car expeditions . . . Alaska, Mexico, Washington DC, Arkansas, etc.

Again, I blame them . . . wouldn't you?
