Vacation Bits and Pieces...
I had so much fun reading Kim's account of her Vintage Vacation on Route 66. The "kicks" start here...Musings from Kim K. I have always loved the tacky tourist traps, old drive-ins and "Frostee Freezes" encountered on the many family road trips of my childhood. That is one of the reasons I so thoroughly enjoyed Kim's blog posts...they were such a blast from the past! Now I'm itching to get on the road! I have been collecting bits and pieces of other people's road trips for years. I finally dug out the box of vintage post cards and other ephemera...the little things that often get thrown away. But sometimes, the little bits and pieces were taped in a scrapbook or tossed in a desk drawer to emerge decades later...for me to find. I scanned a few of my little treasures for you to enjoy...

Transparent Window Decal
I remember those station wagons with windows plastered with these...one from every state!

Dinosaur Hunting License...
My favorite souvenir from Vernal, Utah!
Decal from Bingham Copper Mine...
One of the few man-made things visible from space...and my front porch!

What fun! The girls and I are looking forward to organizing our vacation scrapbook. I promised Emma 30 years from now she would appreciate it even more. Hugs.
Those window decals always remind me of a Normal Rockwell illustration of an old station wagon with scads of them on it. CUTE post with such sweet nostalgia.
