Description Road trips across the USA by Interstate are often boring. My relief is photographing through my windshield. Mostly they turn out bad but sometimes I capture the feeling.

I just got back to California yesterday. This was Nevada..or maybe California.

What is amazing to me about driving across country is, the endless barbed wire fence on both sides of the road. Why is it there? Nevada, California, Arizona, S Dakota, Colorado look out the window and there it is. If you think its not there look further away from the road. It's there. Wierd!

I always want to go wandering off... but, alas, it is all fenced! One of the wonderful thing about roads in Northern Michigan is that there are places with NO fencing and I can wander to my hearts content.

Thanks, E. We are doing great. Just got a bunch of stuff out of storage. It was like Christmas, with dust and dirt.

glad you arrived safely myrna...i wish i could do this whilst driving my mother down south for the winter but i am the one doing the driving so it is rather tricky...going 80-85mph trying to keep up with the traffic AND shooting a camera just doesnt seem safe..

nope. I've never been successful at shooting and driving simultaneously! That's probably worse than texting. LOL
