A modern rest area has opened 40 kilometres southeast of Merritt on Highway 97C at the Loon Lake Interchange. This “Class A” facility with running water and flush toilets features a contemporary design, separate parking locations for passenger, commercial and recreational vehicles, and landscaped outdoor areas including picnic tables. Electric car charging stations will also be installed this spring, and Loon Lake will be among eight rest areas wired for free Wi-Fi this year across the province, making the traveling experience better for British Columbians.
Two places to rest on Boston's City Hall Plaza during HUBweek.
HUBweek is a "civic collaboration and weeklong festival that brings together the most creative and inventive minds making an impact in art, science and technology."
HUBweek? One of Boston's nicknames is "the Hub," as in -- really! -- the "hub of the universe."
I have found that my perspective of things has changed as much by this time in my life as by sunlight or clouds appearing. An everyday scene, such as this Arizona Rest Area, can draw my attention by the creative way a common man-made feature "fits" into its environment.
One more example of "rest area art" from my cross-country trip.

I'd hate to blunder into the womens urnal room.
Even the Braille spells "urnal".

I found this sign at a rest stop along Interstate 81 just after entering Virginia. I didn't know that the state still uses the slogan "Virginia is for Lovers" in its marketing materials.

We're here visiting road-trips.
Finishing off my road-trip back from Montreal today and at least there was some visibility unlike the trip up there on Monday. Needed a bathroom break and stumbled across this rest area. The little building was so quaint inside. Like someone's front room complete with a roaring wood stove keeping the place toasty. Coffee urns available, local area info, and of course said bathrooms. All funded by donations. I took a coffee and popped a donation in the box. Was a great rest from the road!
This shot was taken from the rest area at the highest point of the East-West Highway of Malaysia. Overlooking the mountain ranges….cool, fresh and refreshing. My family and I traveled this highway on our way back home to Shah Alam from Kota Bharu which is approximately 570km. We have to pass through the main range from Jeli, Kelantan to Grik, Perak.
Titiwangsa Mountains (Banjaran Titiwangsa- Malaysian language) is a mountain range that forms the backbone of the Peninsula Malaysia. The range starts in the north in Southern Thailand, running approximately southeast and ends in the south near Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. The highest elevation is the 2,183 m (7,162 ft) Gunung Korbu. The range acts as a natural divider, dividing Peninsular Malaysia into East and West Coast regions.
Several of the more popular tourist destinations in Malaysia such as Cameron Highlands and Fraser's Hill are located on the range.
These trees were trimmed back to provide more light to the rest area and promote healthy growth. Until further notice, the northbound and southbound Custer Rest Area along I-5 will be closed to all travelers.
A very silent rest area along the A36 Beaune-Mulhouse with just my Fiat Punto. This "aire de repos" near L'Écouvotte is called Chevaney.

I flew out to New England for the weekend before my seminars in Connecticut. This gave me an opportunity to nail three states that I didn't have pictures from. So, in this little upload, there are pictures from Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
Yay! Only one state left. See if you can figure out what state I'm missing from this collection.
Unfortunately, the weather really, truly and verily sucked all day - overcast and rainy. But I like New England. Drive around for an hour or so, and you can cover a bunch of states.
