This Land Is Your Land

The open road holds much allure. Adventure, new experiences and wild places await. It promises to cross a few more places off the bucket list, but that hope quickly fades as new destinations are discovered.

This road trip was something out of Woody Guthrie’s tattered journal. Wheat clouds waved. Dust clouds rolled. We followed that ribbon of highway from Minnesota to Texas to California. We plied pristine waters, wandered redwood forests and felt the sand of diamond deserts.  Time on the road is never time wasted. Thankfully, the list only gets longer.
