On the Road Again

Today's trip is to Louisiana to visit my older brother on his birthday.

In Texas, we're accustomed to road trips. Road trips require planning.

Darling Hubby takes care of checking tires, engine, and filling the tank.

I take care of the other important things: tunes and road snacks.

It's like Jenn McKinlay said, “Road trips required a couple of things: a well-balanced diet of caffeine, salt and sugar and an excellent selection of tunes....”

Each time we make this trip, we take a slightly different route. We try to avoid freeways and take the less-traveled roads. I even like detours because you never know what you may find on an unplanned road.

TAKEAWAY TRUTH

Road trips are infintely surprising. “The open road is a beckoning, a strangeness, a place where a man [or woman] can lose himself oneself.” – William Least Heat-Moon
