From My Window Long Distance Driving
By Jane Thibodeau Martin,
**********
I have just returned from a long road trip from Oklahoma to Central Wisconsin and back. I wouldn't call the drives exactly "solo." I was accompanied on the trip north by a sweet stray dog I picked up a few weeks ago going to a good Wisconsin home; and going back south, by a stray kitten I acquired up north, knowing he'd never survive the winter outdoors up there at his tender age. He came back with me to a good home with my neig...
