I can’t believe Glenwood Springs, CO is on the list of most fun towns. All that is there is a few hot springs and that’s it! The town is small and there’s not much to do there. I live close by and have travelled there and was just as happy to leave.

For those interested, I know Captain and Clark will be in Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri with the 9-4x on July 4. Unfortunately… I won’t be.

But they emailed me and very happily offered to show me the car. I’m sure they’d be happy to show it to you too if you can make it down there!

Wow, that photo is pretty grainy! The low light was testing the limits of my already limited cell phone camera. Judging by Twitter, the McNavigators were still in Pucketts Grocery in Franklin, Tennessee (one of my favorites) eating supper, so I thought better of tracking them down. That would be stalking (at least to me), and I had a car full of groceries of my own.

Coincidentally, I started my day in Clarksville, Tennessee yesterday which is also on the list. It is, indeed, a patriotic town, home to the 101st Airborne Division of the U.S. Army, aka the Screamin’ Eagles.

Also love Santa Claus, Indiana! If you have kids (or if you still feel like a kid), Santa Claus is a great, wholesome, middle-America place to visit for a couple of days. I have to pry my kids out of the water park at Holiday World, and once they are out, they are out (asleep).
