I Love the Open Road

The open road, the fresh air wafting in through the opened windows. A liberating feeling of freedom as the scenery passes by. Meeting new people, experiencing new things, these are all part of traveling through the country. I love traveling on the open road. Seeing much of the United States this way, I can't wait to see even more of it. When you travel by plane, sure you save time, but you miss so much. Traveling by train, still doesn't give the same experience. It is the adventure the open road holds, with its endless possibilities.

@MaladyRed Yes it is truly picturesque. I love the prairies to the east of the mountains. You can watch your dog running away for three days and still have a good shot at him.

@hippyjoe1955 Wow what gorgeous scenery !

@melbeacher It can get rather spectacular at times. Sadly I missed an earlier shot when the mountain was wreathed in golden light. That was spectacular.
