I can see where I might not be playing taxi service much on a trip through Rocky Mountain National Park, outside of Estes Park.
On my first trip to Estes Park I nearly passed out at the wheel. I had to pull over. I found out later that it was altitude sickness mixed with my mild asthma. It was scary but I seemed to acclimate better the second trip.

I'll have to look that up.

I had some trouble driving the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge. The first time it was at night and I had my husband, son and two little SIL's in my baby wagon. It was dark but I could see the moonlight reflecting off the swamp water beneath. Have mercy.

That was a long azz bridge. (I drove the other long azz Louisiana bridge, too. Ack!)

Honestly, Donald Trump and those who cheer him.
My high school aged son had a very liberal teacher railing on Donald Trump to the class and how awful and stupid he is. Being my son, (I'm so proud), he felt it his duty to have a Trump 2016 shirt overnighted and wear it to school. Needless to say, the teacher wasn't happy but he couldn't help but laugh when my son just sat there in the front row grinning.

I rode this mountain tram when I went to Palm Springs. I thought for sure it would break and we would fall thousands of feet to the rocks below. I contemplated of just living at the top of the mountain rather than having to take the tram back down. Instead, I just consumed mass quantities of alcohol before making the descent. :)
