Left Midland [Texas] about 10:00 this morning - ate lunch in Colorado [city not state] - stopped in Abilene and in Brownwood for a while. Got home [Mullin, TX] about 5:00 o'clock. Howard fixed the radio, and it is working real good. |
I could come up with no interesting tombstone pics, no genealogy travel stories, and no cool tips for this Tuesday's blogging theme. So, rather bored, I thought, why not see what Holly (see grandma in previous post) was up to? Here's what she was doing on Tuesday (Yes it was a Tuesday!) January 29, 1935: Dang! The girl was busy. Now, everyone knows Texas is a big place - and while this trip wasn't incredibly long (245 miles in today's standards), it's a heck of a lot further than I'll drive today. And they drove all over ALL the time; with cars that didn't go nearly as fast and roads that even today (I've been on many) aren't great. Here's your visual below, thanks to Google Maps.

This is a really creative way to illustrate trip/vacation journals and it's given me the idea to do the same with my grandmother's journal.
