Good one, Denisea! I'm going to use that one in November!

But quarters wouldn't be big enough game for my kids on the long drive from BC to Orlando. We'll have to use roll's of loonie's or toonie's (one and two dollar coins, for you non-Canadians). Then they may have a loonie or two left at the end of it if they're lucky
