I would like to do this.
I have finished the "Descendants of James Gardner." I am now working on the "Descendants of Abraham Gaar."
One of things that enjoy is reading the things that people would do that I wanted to do, but I wasn't willing to take the risk. Here is an example of George Vest Waggoner (Find-a-Grave #144857152)
"One other enthusiasm that George had during those years was traveling. Nearly every summer that I can remember, we took off in the car for a trip, sometimes for five or six weeks at a time. We hit all but two or three of the 48 states during those trips - not a small feat in the days before interstate highways. At one point George rigged up our car so that the back of the rear eat could be removed to allow he and Marian to sleep with their head on the rear seat and their feet in the trunk; I was small enough to sleep on the front seat. We always traveled economically, and I recall my parents boasting that a six-week trip had cost a total of only $300. With paid vacations still a thing of the future, George would simply quit his job when it was time for a trip and reapply when he returned, confident that Siewek would always rehire him back." (A Biography of George Vest Waggener by Phil Waggener, dated December of 1993:)
