“Now, on this road trip, my mind seemed to uncrinkle, to breathe, to present to itself a cure for a disease it had not, until now, known it had.” Elizabeth Berg, The Year of Pleasures
There were those times in life when time, money, lists didn’t constrain. A road trip with someone special was a free flowing event full of discoveries and happiness, of freedom to be in the moment.

road trips are the most innocent and enjoyable of the American vices
long or short…no matter
you are in the moment accruing pleasure at whatever speed you’re moving
twice that if you are doing it with an interesting partner
just ignore all that other crap and go
it really is in your best interest

Totally agree….I became oddly nostalgic for what should be a more typical event, but has become more rare it seems. Wanderlust!!! Hope you are well…..

life gets in the way
you live long enough and the people close to you go away
last year a friend of my wife lost her husband and it pushed a button
we took a month, 10k we didn’t have and drove a little over ten thousand miles
saw things we hadn’t seen before
hell, we saw things in each other we’d forgotten about (luckily they were good things)
we never found the circus but running away from home was a very good thing
it didn’t take as long to regain “normal life” as I would have liked but that road trip made some excellent memories!

For just a road, trees and a sky, that’s pretty nice. You really have a good eye.
