Between Peach Spring and Yampai is the curved double track Nelson tunnel. It is the only tunnel on the former Santa Fe Transcon in Arizona. This is train Q-LABH a priority intermodal from Los Angeles to Birmingham using the Avard connection with the BN (former Frisco). This was in 1991 well before the Santa Fe/BN merger Power from both roads was typically used. In 1991, we were able to drive across the track in Nelson through a clearly never-closed gate and use former ROW that had been bypassed in 1923 when the tunnel was built to get to tunnel. I've read that the lime plant in Nelson has closed that off in recent years and getting to the tunnel is difficult.
Skyline drive in May. The trees just about to turn green, nothing but warm days ahead, winter a fading memory, sigh...
Rode through Seaside, Monterey's Fisherman's Wharf and Cannery Row, Pebble Beach and its 17-Mile Drive, and Carmel.
I called it a day and managed to find a place for the night and a hot meal in Carmel.

Southern Iceland, 2022
Driving around Iceland is often like drawing a lottery. Sometimes it rains, sometimes the weather offers great photo opportunities. This time, I just leaned out of the window, using my phone a a camera, trying to catch the mood of our road trip.
Explored!

took a nice long drive down to my cousin's grad party, thought a little video would help pass the time.
I came upon this driving down the road near Mantua, Utah. When the Sheep Herder saw me he motioned me to follow him and he trotted through the sheep parting them like the Red Sea allowing me to drive through them.
Here's another view of the Ohio Pass Cutoff road in Colorado between Gunnison and Crested Butte. Makes a nice drive in the fall.

Black Point Wildlife Drive traverses the salt marshes of Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. This is how it looks in winter, the "dry season". We always hope that there are a lot of birds to see and photograph.
Captured by mounting my Canon upside-down to the inside of the windscreen of my car using a suction cup gadget holder. It had a screw mount for a GoPro or similar that fitted the tripod mount on the EOS. I then trailed a remote release to the drivers side which I could operate safely whilst keeping both hands on the steering wheel. The camera set up was full manual with bulb exposure. White balance was set to cloudy to capture the orange and yellow motorway lights accurately.
Straight out of camera other than a little contrast tweak.
An explored version of this capture can be seen here flic.kr/p/JQxfr9
I had some shots without the car, but I thought it added something to this very colorful twilight scene.
Thanks for looking!

This is Wildlife Drive one of my favorite places in Minnesota!
I am so behind on comments and for that I am very sorry. I do plan on catching up. It's been so hard to find any extra time. I've been working 2 jobs and taking care of my son and all of his needs. It does not leave me much time. Please don't give up on me as a friend or contact. Thanks
Taken while cruising the back roads looking for owls. Those sticky things are marvellous for keeping stuff from sliding off the dash. Though this hasn't been tested in an emergency stop situation.

I met this car drove in the cherry blossom street with beautiful reflection. It is such a delight of going for a drive there. Hope your spring experience is delightful as well.
上週去拉拉山賞櫻時，剛好有輛車子從旁開過，車窗上的櫻花倒影甚美，還有花瓣撒落其上，在櫻花並木間兜風，超級拉風的啦！

Calaveras Big Trees State Park.
There was once a time when you could drive your car through this tree. The tree is still alive, but it doesn't look too healthy. There are burn marks inside from wild fires, and there are only a few green branches up on top of it. Still, it's not everyday you get to walk through a tree!
