20/365: Driving Occupies The Mind

It's funny how driving is exhilarating and exhausting at the same time. I think its because while you are so focused on everything around you and you are hurlting through cars and all your time is actively occupied, the complete lack of contact with others and the aloneness is astounding.

When I drive, I think so hard about all the things that are bothering me, the things that I want to accomplish. I go through my mental checklist going 75 miles per hour. And take pictures... going just as fast.

 

Its mind boggling to think that muscle memory takes control so easy. I rarely actually thought about DRIVING today, just about everything else. Yet I got to my destination without fatality, without an accident. And the crazy part is that I don't remember most of the drive... Just the sunset.
