Our family of five crossed the country many times, usually by car. Our children's ages were five, two and less than one year. I'm glad they weren't triplets! It took us over a week each trip.

We rolled up the car windows catching a corner of the diapers in the top of the windows, diapers outside. As we drove off down the highway, the diapers flew in the breeze. This method worked faster than today's dryers, but I wouldn't recommend it to Rebecca for use in Portland, even though it would save energy.
