3 week summer Road trip across the USA - MLB games in Milwaukee, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Denver, and Cleveland. A night on Bourbon in New Orleans, a night on Beale in Memphis, a night on Broadway in Nashville, a concert in Louisville. Mount Rushmore, Notre Dame Stadium, college football hall of fame, Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, a night in the grain silos in Akron. A LOT of other stuff.
