Sheraton Lincoln Harbor Hotel to NYC
Look at the travel booking sites and if you find something that you might

Dress Code in Las Vegas
I think it's an age thing, too. I remember way back when that flip-flops
were called thongs. That was long before proper young ladies wore underwear
that are called tongs. (BTW, we called...

Route 66 and the Arctic circle
You might be right! I do remember going through Amarillo and a bunch of
other towns and cities that I probably would have by-passed if the

Gulf Coast sights?
Brian, MTV! Thanks for the ideas. We like everything from eating, to
history, to gardens, to casinos. Looks like we might need more than a

Route 66 and the Arctic circle
You're probably right! I grew up in St. Louis but I only drove on the St.
Louis - California part of the road on a trip in about 1965/1966. I don't

Route 66 and the Arctic circle
What most people don't know is that Route 66 was not one highway from the
time it was first designated as 66 to when it faded with the advent of the

RIP rec.travel.usa-canada.
