When I was little, every ride in a car was a vacation. My father loved to drive, so he would take my mother and me to see the countryside. My favorite thing to do was to pick black-eyed susans. My mother would say, "stop here" to my dad, and he would. I think that's what I most remember, picking these pretty flowers by the side of the road, "on vacation".

Another fun story and good memories! We used to drive long distances as well until I was in high school. Then we started flying places. I love your card! Did we all go for drives on Sunday afternoon?

What a wonderful memory. We used to go on rides when I was a kid too - too bad we don't do that type of activity anymore ... Sunday drive. I love this. Thanks for those memeories GF.

Your Black Eyed Susans are beautiful. It was fun to hear about your drives and the picking of flowers. I have Black Eyed Susans in the front of my house, you can come over and pick a bouquet.
