Recently in various travels Category

On a road that I have traveled quite a few times at this point in my life I find miles and miles of farms. It really is interesting that one could travel for hours via a multitude of vehicle and still find only farms outside of the window. There is not much else that is of any interest on a road trip throughout the middle of the country. Sometimes you could find yourself being interested in the contents of passing cars. Sometimes you can find something interesting at one of the many rest stops. The things people fill their cars with; dogs, cats and weeks worth of garbage are common.

Setting off around 05:20 we quickly see that nobody else is on the road.. A good thing for anyone on a road trip. Leaving Chicago is always amazing in the morning, you see the sun slowly coming up over the lake as the car creeps away from the urban into the rural. After my recent train ride through the country I was not looking forward to seeing endless corn and farms. Though uninteresting after about fifteen years of seeing it I was excited to see the fog in the fields as I had seen in Nebraska.

Maybe there will be counting of pennies… but rain or shine the island awaits. There should be many old VW vehicles on the island for some yearly event.

A recent trip from Chicago Illinois to Columbus Ohio, 400 miles each way. First photograph must have been done somewhere near North Baltimore Ohio.
