Description
Some places we go because somebody we love went first, or tried to. My dad drove all the way to Mount Rushmore when he was younger, and the morning he got there it was fogged in. So he's been to Mount Rushmore. He just hasn't seen it.
This week: the roads we inherit, why the trips that go wrong are the ones that get handed down, how to drive in fog (low beams, more room, and patience), and a postcard from Karen, who has sixty-five years of road behind her.
What's a place you inherited? Or what's your family's fog story? Send me a postcard: https://www.outdriving.com/contact?topic=postcard
