In the days before cheap air travel, families in America didn’t
so much take vacations as survive them. Between home and destination lay hundreds – perhaps thousands of miles of
road, and dozens of annoyances.
During his childhood, Richard Ratay experienced all of them;
from being crowded into the back seat with noogie-happy older brothers, to
picking out a souvenir only to find that a better one might have been had at
the next attraction, to dealing with a dad who didn’t believe in bathroom
breaks.
