The highway to the south was a long stretch of road, sometimes unpaved, with a few buses zooming past us and spewing a generous amount of smoke and dust.  The almost two hour trip would consist mostly of Papas monologue about family responsibility and education, http://thadhinunangan.blogspot.com/2019/04/dad-used-to-drive-us-to-his-hometown-in.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Thad)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-211911759402447768.post-8759151482031646330Sat, 10 Jun 2017 06:24:00 +00002017-06-09T23:24:13.822-07:00Hello World!
