The fact that I'm even bloggin about this tells you how corny I can be. But hey every small town probably has some tradition that most people hold on to but no one knows why. In Morton it was the tunnels. There is only one set of tunnels which is actually a lot, most towns don't have any. And you can ask almost anyone in town about them and they will tell you....you honk when you drive through. For many of us this is something our parents did for us when we were kids and now we do it for our our children. There was just something special about driving through those tunnels. But last week we said good bye. We had a whole tunnel parade of cars and everything. Our kids are sad to lose the excitement and childlike joy that driving through a tunnel brings. As our way of saying good bye we joined the parade and drove through no less than four time (honking each time) on the last night they were open.
