[quote=Anonymous] Yeah, I found out last summer that my parents are really too old and disabled to travel much...I drove with them and my dc to my oldest's wedding. I'm so grateful that they are alive and were able to be there, but golly it was a hard trip! I did all the driving of course, which is fine, but every rest stop took so.long. and so did stopping to eat. And the second day of the drive, I and dc got to cool our heels in the hotel lobby while they got ready to go-2 hours later than I wanted. I guess it was suprising to me because we have made the same trip several times in our lives, the most recent about 5 years ago (before covid). But it was hard for them, and me, and we decided they won't be doing any long drives again. My adult kids came for the holidays (parents and I live close by each other) and a few other relatives are planning visits. It's time for folks to come to them.[/quote]
