Oh yes, this was the major road trip! How'd the kids do? Any 'my butt hurts, let's stop'chorus?

Midway through Indiana on the way back, we started having *ahem* butt problems. Put the kids pillows under them, and plowed on.
And for me, I can take or leave the water. I enjoy it, but unlike some people I'm married to, I can't seem to find a way to just sit out in the sun at the beach. I have to be doing something... anything... [/QUOTE]The pillows! Of course! Brilliant maneuver, Bungleau!
That's a really good tip for parents on long car rides, along with bringing tons of things for them to do to keep from being bored.
I hear you on the not sitting still thing, my husband can't do that...he's got to have a book or something to occupy him if he's waiting even ten minutes. If he doesn't, he rapidly becomes the world's best drummer of whatever is nearby.
