Ithaca, N.Y.,
dad Bruce Stoff emailed me that «a little break goes a
long way
on vacation,» — at least it did when he took his daughter to the Smithsonian for an hour while his wife «relaxed amid the Renoirs» at the National Gallery.
This actually ended up being among the
longer trips, because my
dad and I decided to do the relatively short Detroit - to - Columbus round - trip commute twice — once for the pair of semifinal games
on the Thursday and again for the finals that Saturday — saving
on hotel costs and valuable
vacation days from my new job at Automobile Magazine.
