A few years ago I had a very liberal Girlfriend.
We would regularly undertake road trips that had only a few rules, get lost, no highways.
I drove from DC to NYC and only paid one toll (Lincoln Tunnel). In the middle of the night without GPS or a road that had more than one lane in either direction.
We did the same thing going to Niagara Falls. No highways, all back roads. No GPS.
Over time my ability to “get lost” was a challenge.
It was all about the music, sex and drinking along the way.
Cresting Skyline Drive at dawn, after 36 hours of driving with Pink Floyd was an experience that I will never forget.
Heading home ?
A detour ?
Something else to think about.
We found ourselves on Lee HWY after being on the road and drinking continuously for at least 36 hours.
BTW, I’m a really good driver.
She loved the music, as did I.
As we drove past an abortion clinic, with protesters out front, I think it was Creed playing, and I broke down in tears.
She knew my position but did not understand why I was crying.
Enlighten us why did you cry?
“..why I was crying...”
Beautiful post. Many thanks
