Adventures in Driving

Well, I’m back in St. C after going back to my hometown. My Mom’s birthday is coming up so I went home to visit. I had a lovely time there and also saw some very good friends (and a friend’s absolutely adorable 9 month old baby girl).

On the way back, to keep myself entertained, I started cataloging the things I had seen while driving.

A few of the more memorable things are:

• approximately 60 miles of construction
• 1 angry turkey in a field
• white tailed deer in a pen
• roadkill
• license plates from: Michigan, Ontario, Quebec, Illinois, Ohio, Texas, Georgia, New York and a terrible BMW driver from New Jersey
• an empty GM plant
• speeders pulled over by police (in one case, 3 within approximately 100m)
• fields, trees, lakes and rivers
• rain
• 2 sunsets
• a couple vineyards

And as an aside, on this trip I also experienced the irony of John Mellencamp’s “Authority Song” playing while going through customs.
