Quote of the Month |
The stories - not the physical sites - are what's paramount, and they become more indelibly impressed in our minds when we travel to where they occurred.

Remember the sweet little tune, Happiness is..., from the show, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown? I sang it once on a USO Tour. But I digress.
I couldn't help but think of it earlier this month when my Trail Talk entitled, Happiness, was sent out to you with the totally wrong link. I experienced another Charlie Brown moment that day: aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrggggghh! If anybody still wants to read it, here is the correct link, with my apologies to this month's sponsor, Regency Inns Management.

Don't Miss the Boat 
Lewis & Clark Trail - Aug. 1-16
Actually, we'll be traveling by deluxe motorcoach (even the Corps of Discovery was obliged to abandon their boats at times). It's just our way of saying we will be accepting bookings for the August 1-16 excursion only until the end of this month. If you already have your registration packet, NOW is the time to act. And if you haven't yet requested one, send for it today, to assure your place on one of the most unique travel experiences available today.
