Traveling 3000 miles

Blogger disordered these pictures and maybe I will leave them that way. To travel across the breadth of the US is specifically disordered. Wandering behind the wheel toward the opposite coast is the sense of overwhelming distance and burden, especially in a car without cruise control (silly Germans who I bought it from). Despite the journey and thoughts of impending doom, I look back with a feeling of accomplishment. And wonder. And a fierce determination to see this through and open my mind to what may be or what may be gone.

Things in life slip through our fingers before we know it sometimes. And sometimes when it feels like there is no hope, there actually is.
