As a kid, I remember my dad inviting everyone traveling in our family car to huddle around him as he proudly announced that the mileage indicator was going to turn over to a new level.

I have had a quote rolling around in my mind for some time now that I think is unusually profound but I forgot who said it.

I remember when taking a vacation in the summer meant riding roller coasters, water skiing, binge watching movies every night, eating anything I wanted and doing it again the next day until Dad said it was time to leave and go home.
