Rose Noel's account of her family's road trip in 1968 was a delightful read. She understates the episodes in a way that only highlights the courage and daring of the adults, the patience of the children and the love they all had for that sister living so far away in Grand Bank. The Waltons don't hold a candle to this family. I hope we are still producing hardy, optimistic people like them. Yours truly, Gerald Barnable   Submitted By: NULL
