If you are old enough, where were you on July 4, 1776?
I was in Estes Park, Colorado, on a driving trip throughout the state with my mom, dad, and sister. We also went to Denver, Colorado Springs, and Carson City, among other places. We visited the Mint, had dinner at the Broadmoor Hotel, and panned for gold.
I was eight years old.
We lived in San Antonio at the time.
The next summer we took another driving trip, this time to California. We visited Los Angeles, Bakersfield, and San Francisco among other places. We went to Disneyworld, saw the California redwoods, explored Fisherman's Warf, and saw the Pacific Ocean.
These trips were important and long-lasting family memories.
My dad passed away in December of 1977.
He was 41 years old.
Live life.
Make memories.
Love others.
