Polly Pocket sized friends.

I have really great friends. They are supportive and kind. They make me laugh. They encourage me to be better. They cheer me up and give great hugs. They say the nicest things and always make me feel so good. I wish that I could carry around Polly Pocket sized versions of my friends. That way when I have a bad day or feel a little down I could just pull one out of my pocket for a little pick me up. My dear friends... I you!

on the road.

So, I had this discussion tonight about how I take pictures (and occasionally a video or two) while I drive. Kids, don't try this at home. I can't help it. I think the world is so beautiful and I love to record the things I see. Plus, it helps me to stay awake and keeps me entertained when I'm all by my lonesome. There are so many fun sights, cool structures, and stunning nature scenes that I wish I could capture them all... as they are with the naked eye. Since I can't I just settle for second best ... a drive by snap shot. So I decided to share a few. Jean Marie... the wisteria colored tree shots and monster mouth truck pic are for you. :)

Shots taken during various trips from SC to VA and back. Most highway shots are from either I-77 or I-81.


The Plains! The Plains! VA



Almost home. Notice the stone fences... Civil War era remnants.




Scenes from an alternative route home.




Ahh, Home Sweet Home.



I love watching birds fly. These little teeny birds fly in huge flocks back home. This isn't the best pic. I've seen some pretty big flocks and got so distracted I've actually pulled over.


Trip to UT to see my friends a few years ago. Special place in my heart for this view.


Trip from Montana to Iowa with Mom and the Emdog after Brian and Sheena's wedding.



Road trip to the Y with Emdog. Recognize any of these sights?






The reality is.... I have lots more pics like this. These are just some of my favorites. Hope you enjoyed. Good night and good luck.
