Ahhh - the open road! Just you and the sun, and the birds! And the rest of that traffic on the Interstate, especially at those freeway access points in the major metropolitan areas where every wanna-be racer and their horse is in, they're out, they're here, they're there! And then just like that they're gone.
And in between those major metropolitan areas there are the truckers, who had a bad experience with a four wheeler once (or once every 15 minutes - everyday) so now they ride your donkey at every chance they get and pull out to block two lanes with their partners in crime while YOU have to slow on the hill for miles instead of them down-shifting, like they have to do anyway in another 30 seconds or so. And now we learn they are sleep deprived too while they text and weave!
Yes - nothing like Route 66 and the Lincoln Highway and the Great River Road to bring solace and freedom to man!
Or am I thinking backpacking?
