It was July 1979 and I was 20. There were 16 of us driving down from Chicago in 4 cars all equipped with CB radios. My friends parents took/chaperoned/planned, call it what you will the group of us There were the parents and then 2-21 yr old boys, me (20 yr old girl), 19 yr old boy, 19 yr old girl, 18 yr old girl, 3-17 yr old girls, 16 yr old boy, 15 yr old girl, 15 yr old boy, 13 yr old boy and 8 yr old girl. Looking back, I think the parents were either nuts or saints. I didn't get back until my honeymoon in 1984 then not again until my son was 5 in 1993. Now we go at least once a year since 1998. Leaving in 2 days for my bro's 40th birthday (he was the 16 yr old boy).
