You could get 30 some miles with a Buick!!! Maybe prior 2005 though…ours is a 2002 Park Ave and we get 30 plus on the open road…heated seats, the works!! We had the same problem at a Roadway Inn in North Platt, NE.

Well I have just checked back to the blog to see if I got any responses. It’s good to see such a spirited discussion!

My intention was not to hurt anyone’s feelings; instead I wanted to question a few aspects of the column that I found questionable.

I was disappointed to see that nobody had a problem with BEA in AZ’s comment:

“Doug, that Rodeway Inn used to be (and I mean USED TO BE) quite nice before it was sold out to
the foreign speaking people.”

You all defending Lund must be his friends, and although this may be somewhat honorable, you are all choosing to ignore the larger issue: the small-minded view held by the author of this article as well as the author of the comment quoted above.

So a different route this year? No U.S. 54 and Kansas. Sounds like you’re sticking to the Interstates. Faster and more boring.

I bet you are just all kinds of fun at your place of employment Bob-Lob…..kind of guy that brings smiles to the workplace…..when you aren’t there. Must be nice to get paid to romp on the internet while working, looking for an outlet for your negativity. Plug in someplace else and leave us and our smiles alone! As I will be working and accessing the internet while doing so would be a definite no-no I will be signing on tonight to see what I wish I could be doing in Arizona through the eyes of a a couple people who know how to enjoy life, bring a smile and a laugh and to simply share their thoughts and experiences with anyone (they can be any color, shape, size, religion, sex etc) who cares to know. Racist <>, NOW you put a smile on my face and am shaking my head too cuz you are so off base you surely must be trying to crack a joke!

I agree with Denny…Hope you and Linda have a fun month

Doug, glad to hear you and Linda made it to Phoenix. Sounds like this trip was much better than last year. Now it’s time to go hit that Gawd-awful sounding driver. Oh, and Bob-Lob, If Doug’s blogs are so boring and disappointing, why even bother with a response? And that diary you mentioned? Just wondering if that was last year? Later, Denny.

Hey, Bob-Lob, I bet your employer would rather you work than read blogs anyway! My suggestion if you don’t like this website is to go find something constructive to do! I’m sure it won’t hurt Doug’s or the people that enjoy this blog’s feelings!

I read the blog and could not stop smiling as I can totally relate to staying at the “Roach Inn”. But you just make the best of a bad situation. Happy New Year and I am so glad that you made it safe and sound.

Oh and Bob – Lob you apparently were not raised liked the rest of us. “If you do not have something nice to say DO NOT SAY ANYTHING AT ALL!!” I know my Grandparents would be proud of me cause I remember those words that they tought me. Would yours be proud of you?

Doug, that Rodeway Inn used to be (and I mean USED TO BE) quite nice before it was sold out to
the foreign speaking people. Now I truck on to Holbrook and the Motel 6, that is, IF I leave the valley to go north for visits. P>S> Say Hi to Linda – she maybe doesn’t remember me, but Iam
from her home town and hung around with her next-door neighbor in high school.

“Watching Dick Clark is a better alternative than observing the MSM trying to do a hatchet job on the Republican Party while covering the Iowa primaries (can’t spell caucus) so that their BOY Obomama will get reelected.”

Their “BOY” Obama? Sad to think that in 2012 there are still racists spewing their hate.
