Kathy, I always used to stop in Trinidad when visiting my parents because it was halfway between our house (north of Denver) and my parents' house in NM. Plus it has the Burger King playland so my daughter could run off some energy before the next 4 hour segment of the drive!
Dayna, I think it would be fun to meet other Cathe-ites, even though I'm a relatively new Cathe-ite ;-)
