Road Tripping

A 10 day road trip from Colorado to Michigan had many, many interesting educational moments. One highlight was viewing the opening ceremonies of the Special Olympics, but another was the discovery of this historical site, the remnants of the Old Spanish Trail.
Originally established to move woven textiles west and horses and mules east, the Old Spanish Trail had a significant life from about 1830. Reading of and learning about these historical locations may well be a great hobby during the years of intentional unemployment and travel in the Volkswagon van.
