A s kids, we didn't look forward to Sundays nearly as much as our parents.

They were inveterate Sunday drivers. And while in those days there wasn't much television to watch or many electronic games to play, I saw it as less than worthwhile to sit in a car and drive from here to there and back just because we'd never been there before.

But the concept rubbed off, and to this day our own kids -- my wife was also raised by Sunday drivers -- simply shake their heads because Dad never goes the same way twice in the same day. Not even to the store."
