Which is the cheapest method to travel from Chicago, IL to Pullman, Washington? Question: What method would you suggest to be the cheapest, for instance, plane, train, bus, car? Answer: I'd fly to Seattle, and then take a Greyhound to Pullman. The bus ride would be about 7 hours. Spokane is a lot closer, but airfares are way more expensive. You could also take the bus the whole way, but you don't wanna do that. I don't think Pullman has train service, it's a seriously podunk town (with a big university) |

I had a blowout with my mom about traveling with my son by train.? Question: I live in Tacoma and my boyfriend-sons dad lives 2 and a half hrs away in Portland. We do a really good job going back and forth to see eachother. Anyway, I was going to take the train(like usual) down there in a couple days. My mom said I am being irresponsible and taking a great risk by going on the train with my 6 month old because of H1N1. We just got back from there about 2 weeks ago. I don't want to put my son at risk. I take pocket lysol and spray our seats and our area with it and sanitizer for when we get off the train or for any time really. Over in pullman washington they have about 9,000 suspected H1N1 cases and half the town was over here in seattle this last week for a seattle football game. So, that means people who took the train are likely to have/get swine flu. Do you think I should just rent a car to go see boyfriend? He's going to think I'm rediculous for not just taking the train, hes the kind that thinks I overreact and over protect. I feel the same way as my mom really. Besides that, I don't wanna argue with her about it when I really agree. Whats your take? Im the one that travels because I stay with my parents, and they wont allow him to stay over here because it sets a bad example for my liul sis theyy say. So when he comes here he can only sta for like 6hrs cause of the train times, whereas I can stay in Portland as long as I want. I go back to college the 23rd tho so we wanted to see him before I get too busy I also dont want him to take the train cause he could end up bein a carrier. Answer: Small children are especially susceptible to H1N1. I hate it when men think women are being overcautious or silly - I suppose sometimes they have a point, but you see they have less to lose. This is your son's LIFE you are talking about here. I really wouldn't give a flip about what he thought about me, just worry about my son. And he should be worried, too. If you still worry about what he thinks, you can look up facts to supply him and just calmly reinforce yourself. I would definitely rent a car - it is easier to control who gets in and who gets out of it, where the train is an uncontrollable environment ,and with this going on - you don't want to take the chance. |

Book Recommendations for a long Train Ride? Question: I'm traveling across the country to Washington DC, and I'm going to be on an Amtrak train for about 48 hours straight each way. I'm excited, because it's a nice, leisurely way to travel, and I won't have to get strip-searched and tasered for the privilege of sitting on a tarmac for 5 hours in a tiny little seat that doesn't recline. I'll have a sleeper car, and I'll be able to wander around the train, watch the scenery, and it'll be a great opportunity to tear through some books. Here are the last few books I've read and I loved them all: Making Money by Terry Pratchett The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman Spook Country by William Gibson Time Enough For Love by Robert A. Heinlein Worldwired by Elizabeth Bear The System of the World by Neal Stephenson What would you suggest for someone who likes these kinds of books? Or, for the heck of it, what would you recommend even if you haven't read these books? Answer: My first thought was Philip Pullman's trilogy, His Dark Materials, so I say go for books 2 and 3 (Subtle Knife and Amber Spyglass). Other fantasy titles I've liked in the past: Piers Anthony and his Xanth books (especially the beginning) - full of puns; his Adept trilogy and the Incarnations of Immortality series (loved On a Pale Horse!) Might check out Katherine Kurtz and her Deryni series. It was written in the 80s I think - the Deryni are a magical race - there are very few left, because they were marked for death. Different genre - The Kite Runner is a good one. I understand his other book, A Thousand Splendid Suns, is also good. Maybe a Stephen King book, if you haven't read all of them. The Stand, Misery or It? The Mist is also out now, alone, or part of the short story collection, Skeleton Crew. If I come up with some others (more variety), I'll be back. Have a great trip! Sounds wonderful. I've looking into it a few times, but the money for any trip isn't there right now. |
