I'm planning a road trip, Nate announced quietly. Wanna come? To where? I need to see my kids.I have two younger ones, Austin and Angela, in Salem,Oregon.I'll probably go there first.My older son is a grad student atNorthwestern inEvanston, and I have a daughter in Pittsburgh.It'll be a nice little tour.
