When we take a road trip we like to DO something to help pass the miles. Sometimes we fall back on the reliable alphabet game using road signs and license plates. But now that we travel without the kids we've branched out a bit.
Our first RV trip out west we were gone for almost seven weeks.....and kept a list of road kill. Raccoons won. Our then ten-year-old grandson thought it was so funny because we would text him with updates. Then the next time we kept track of wildlife.....alive. That was fun too....especially when we realized we were well over 200 pronghorn!
Last time we thought we'd keep track of slogans for the small towns we passed. "The Friendliest Town in Iowa!" or "Buckle of the Cornbelt" etc. but we sort of lost interest.
But I already have a theme for the next trip. We are going to write down all of the different labels for rest rooms along the way. All because of lunch today at a restaurant in Bar Harbor.
We've all seen the typical labels that sometimes reflect different areas of the country: Men's and Ladies, Gents and Ladies, His and Hers, Cowboys and Cowgals, and the simple drawing that shows the outline of a person wearing a skirt or pants. But today we found the BEST!
We were having lunch in Bar Harbor and there it was....two doors. Inboards and Outboards.
We both made the right choice!.
