Lewis & Clark

As we drive across country we notice many signs pointing out Lewis & Clark's trail across country. This is my 10th roadtrip and we've driven to every state in the US (not Hawaii) and I've seen Lewis & Clark signs, parks, hotels, gas stations, gift shops, forests, boat rides up the Missouri River, boat trips through the gates of the Rockies and so many more. Apparently nobody else had a trip worthy of signs and gift shops. I understand that Lewis & Clark made their way across country and provided research about the land but did they ever try to check into a hotel when the town is sold out? Did they ever try to find the internet code and get the WiFi up and running on three computers? Did they ever have to figure out why their GPS insists on sending them East instead of West. Did they ever have to figure out why their flat tire indicator light keeps going off even though the tires appear full? . . . and finally did they ever try to write a blog every day and wonder why they only have 4 followers? NO!! . . . they did none of this and for those reasons and more I'd like a reassessment on the value that Lewis and Clark have brought to us. I'm pretty convinced if good ole Lewis & Clark hadn't made it across country than someone else would have done it instead. Maybe even a mom and her two teen kids. I'd like to bring back Lewis and Clark and have them set up in a mini-van in Boston and just see how fast they could get across country now . . . I bet they wouldn't make it past the Mass Pike!
Could we just take down one of the Lewis & Clark signs and give some credit to some others because we're sick of it!
Day 12 and someone is getting grumpy! when I say someone I mean all three of us. Heading WEST!
