Canadians on a road trip

Last night we had a couple of visitors staying --nothing unusual in that --except that they were on a road trip from Monkton Canada (on the far east coast) to California. they set of with the aim of getting to california and back in 31days , They had already driven 6000 miles in the rental car .
Sam and Mike met them last year on their eventful trip to Canada so they thought they would drop in. they are taking photos on the way and hoping to visit 30 states in all. they had some great stories to tell and it reminded me of how great and amazing and hospitable the american population is .
They had been offered , showers, food , places to stay and lots of company and stories mainly from complete strangers . They had no agenda just the trip and no map !!! what a joy that would be to me , i would love to do this type of trip , maybe mike and I should have a "gap" year and have a trip !!!
They were also swapping clothes along the way so Sam ended up with T shirts and hats fron canada and they went away with lacrosse shorts ,a cowboy hat and american eagle sweat shirts . a fair exchange .
