Happy Birthday to our neighbours to the South!

Some of my closest friends live south of the 49th and I love your country. I have travelled to numerous states and most recently, I had the opportunity to drive from Vancouver to Nashville. Through the Western states to Vegas, then down to Flagstaff and across on Route 66 (with a stop at the Grand Canyon), to our final destination of Nashville. Over 3400 miles in a rental car, my husband and I zoomed our way on highways and byways - we nicknamed our journey "Bourbon & Banjoes".
