A Little Trip East From Linwood Park With Family Friends
The writer describes a relaxed family car trip toward Chicago and Vermillion Ohio, noting packing hiccups and jokes about women doing most of the planning. The party grows to over thirty at Linwood Park near Lake Erie, with plans for rest, swimming, tennis, golf, and a large shared meals arrangement. A backseat navigator, a college-bound traveler, and the lively antics of Henrietta and pals color the journey. The pace shifts from city bustle to rural roads as they enjoy country smells and scenic drive.
