There are times when males have the ability to hold the future in their hands - in a manner of speaking. Now they are talking about Merkel of Germany holding the world's future in her hands. That is a lot to hold. I mean perhaps the Germans have big hands but the world seems like a stretch.

Guess which three have eluded this intrepid traveling family. Any rate the drive was all in about 1,800 miles and included some memorable geographic wonders or points of interest. Easternmost part of state of Massachusetts being one. Furthest drivable road east in Mass being another. Visit to all Ivy League schools (term harkens to a collegiate athletics conference and generally regarded as elite academic institutes of some repute worldwide) is another random bucket list item of which this trip afforded the chance to knock two more of the list. Dartmouth in Hanover, NH and Brown (and its sister institute the RISD - school f
