On the road again.

 

Can't wait to go on the road again...

 

We are finally hitting the road again for an one week vacation before kids school starts. Driving from California to Denmark. Or somewhere that looks like Denmark for first stop...

I was at the Worlds Fair as well. Except the girl(s) were my mom and sisters, along with my father and brothers.

 

Unfortunately, I have no memories of that day. I was only 9 months old. 😁

Sounds like my memory of the NY World’s Fair in 1939. I was 3 and my aunts always  told me I had a wonderful time.

Good afternoon everyone.

It was 66°F and cloudy at the beach.

We had salmon sandwiches for lunch in our beach tent.

Hope everyone is well.

Stay safe everyone.😷

The town's name is Solvang . Which is supposed to mean "Sunny Fields". If you Google the towns name or search on YouTube, you will find lots of info.

 

Basically every store in the town has Denmark feel to it.  They called themselves the Danish capital of US.

@harryfat1

great pictures.   Looking forward to more from your travels. 

 

@h20skibum - Thanks. Will post what I can. Will hectic travel schedule and problem uploading to CC web site, these pics are few days old. Need to catch up when I can.

 

@Dani - we got 3 pastries for dessert to eat in hotel on the first night, which was Saturday. 

 

The bag got a little crushed by time we got to hotel but the food tasted fine nonetheless...

We've been to Solvang a few times. If you have the time drive over to Lompoc and check out the endless fields of different variety of flowers on the way.

Hi, Patti,

 

Good to talk to you again. As I recall, you recently retired? How are things?

 

Hi, Bob,

 

Yeah. There may be a rock picture or two on the road trip, but can't say all of them are "real"...

I haven’t seen her in a long time, but I used to watch her a lot. I like the no bs kind of judge. I tried some of the other judge shows and they were horrible.

 

Sorry to hear that. Hoping you are as comfortable as possible. 

 

Mike used to have hair like that in collage, but now not so much. 😃

Thank you,Renee

That’s great if they are giving free parking.

 

Glad this forum/people lift your spirits. ❤️

I’m finally caught up. Now I need to do the same on a few others. If I missed anyone’s weddings, birthdays, or anything else I’m truly sorry. It wasn’t intentional.

Nobody would think it was intentional

There is one very grainy, faded B&W picture of my mom in front of one of the pavilions,  holding a bundle of rags.  I'm told that's me.

 

I've always said there were 3 great events that happened in the US in 1964:

 

Beatles came to America.

Ford released the Mustang.

Me! 😆😇  (j/k)

The Worlds Fair 😀
