Join in on the Haiku fun every Friday at Rebecca's recuerda mi corazon blog.
Coloring is fun
Desert driving is like that
Just stay in the lines
Two thousand four hundred and twenty two miles across the country, from Wisconsin to the California coast, and you're bound to see some places like this along the way. This spot is along US Hwy 50, dubbed The Loneliest Road in America.
We arrived safely and have been filling our time playing music and hanging out with friends. I did get on my motorcycle between raidrops for a short spin into Eureka to see some old friends and one new one, the four month old child of one of the people I met when I participated on The Longest Walk back in 2008.
Busy in the days ahead. Funny, I drive all this way to prepare for and talk about the trip home and the motorcycle journey we are planning upon arrival in Wisconsin.
Another report will update our progress when I get the chance. In the meantime, enjoy your day and the Haiku.
Peace
Lonely, but lovely.

I love to drive through vast deserted places like this! I would have a tendancy not to stay within the lines!
ReplyDeletehaiku -on the road
Thanks for all the visits and th comments, they are greatly appreciated.
ReplyDeleteAuthor's Note:
I want to point out that photo was taken while driving, and the yellow line is in the center of the picture. So, maybe I wasn't totally within the lines at all times.
Don't try this at home, (Professional stunt driver)
