Countdown to the Route 66 Adventure Trip is now 13 days.
Still on for Sept. 6 departure at 6am in my comfortable Toyota Avalon, not a bad stand-in for a red Corvette. I’m making signs for back and side windows, and look forward to horn toots, waves and high-fives along the highway.
My trip lists seem to get longer instead of shorter. Guest room bed is piled with snacks, vitamins, mini-medicine cabinet, toiletries, clothes, maps and more. Current challenge: condensing the pile into one rolling suitcase, one small duffle, one briefcase with I-pad, and one box of supplies.
Excitement, off the charts. A longtime dream about to become reality.
