The drive from Montreal to Maine was made easier by blue skies, white clouds, and scenic roadway. Something about miles of repeating telephone poles that speaks to a certain freedom of the road.

There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who standing looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder

Of all the galleries that i have seen so far, this one is my favorite. All the Art inside and out have been repurposed from other things. I am pretty amazed at this one...how, and where did they get all these license plates!!??? i always thought you had to turn them in if you got new ones!!! i also wonder how they got the road reflector thingies to make the sun!!! i wonder if some roads are missing theirs!
Inside they have signs made ..by slicing the letters up and the numbers and then jumbling the different states to spell words. I love them...they are colorful and fun messages, mounted on pallet wood!
At some point i am going to get the courage to show them some of my things...and maybe get to display in there. I always see so many thing i would love to decorate with in that store!!
On the license plates in this mural they have embedded the name of the store. As many times as i have been there or passed it, i never noticed it until the day i went to edit this shot!!
If you scan it and are even a smidgen more aware of things than i am, you will probably find it right away! :)
Have a wonderful Memorial Day. Remember the WHY of your day off...and give thanks! :)
After borrowing one from www.stuckincustoms.com/links/BorrowLenses, my shipment finally arrived from sweet lady B&H. This is now the backup camera to my D3X, and if you want to know the reasons why I got it (and why it's my backup), visit my Nkion D3S Review page. In fact, I already popped my new 85mm prime lens on there... so more pics coming soon for the Nikon 85mm Review.
I'll be packing it up for the upcoming trip to New Zealand. Thanks for all the comments on that page, btw - I am going to be following up on that stuff soon, in addition to setting up a photowalk in Christchurch to compete with the one in Auckland! These are free events, so all my internet Kiwi friends are welcome to attend!

This makes you think twice about the three-point baby harness in your 4000 lb SUV, doesn't it? Actually, I remember growing up in the 70's and sliding around the backseat vinyl of an old Caddy, swinging ponderously around roads of Texas. Now, it seems to take me an extra 10 minutes to get everyone strapped in, like we are on final entry into the atmosphere!
A bunch of people on a motorbike (or stuffed into a car) is not an uncommon site in India, or dozens of other countries around the world. It's always a bit hard to capture. I don't like using a flash, because I don't want to startle the poor driver.
The most people on a motorbike I have seen is six -- and I've seen that multiple times in India and all over Southeast Asia. Often times, the young kids are smashing between the parents or older siblings. I haven't seen seven people on board yet, but I hold out hope.
The Cabot Trail is a highway and scenic roadway in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia.
It is located in northern Victoria County and Inverness County on Cape Breton Island.
The route measures 298 km (185 mi) in length and completes a loop around the northern tip of the island, passing along and through the scenic Cape Breton Highlands. It is named after the explorer John Cabot who landed in Atlantic Canada in 1497, although most historians agree his landfall likely took place in Newfoundland and not Cape Breton Island. Construction of the initial route was completed in 1932.

The northern section of the Cabot Trail passes through Cape Breton Highlands National Park. The western and eastern sections follow the rugged coastline, providing spectacular views of the ocean. The southwestern section passes through the Margaree River valley before passing along Bras d'Or Lake.

The Cabot Trail is the only trunk secondary highway in Nova Scotia which does not have a signed route designation. Road signs along the route instead have a unique mountain logo.
The road is internally referred to by the Department of Transportation and Public Works as Trunk 30. The Trunk 30 road named the "Cabot Trail" loops from Exit 7 on Nova Scotia Highway 105 at Buckwheat Corner to Exit 11 on Highway 105 at South Haven. The scenic travelway known as the "Cabot Trail" includes all of Trunk 30, as well as the portion of Highway 105 between exits 7 and 11.
The entire route is open year-round.

The tall grasses in the Ozarks turn a beautiful golden color during autumn, making the rugged landscape all the more beautiful around the 1,150 mile shoreline of the Lake of the Ozarks. This was shot from a gravel parking lot next to Baxtern's restaurant. The Blue Heron Restaurant can be seen through the trees on the right, sitting on the highest point along the shoreline of this huge, serpentine-shaped recreational lake in mid-Missouri.

While driving in Algonquin Park before sunrise, we came across a moose on the side if the road. After we stopped, the moose crossed the roadway and stood on a hillside before crossing the road once again. I took this photo on its second crossing as a truck came upon the scene and stopped in time. The moose made it safely into the woods and left us with a greater respect for the hazard of such encounters
This model WG is usually seen with an integral sleeper. This Roadway rig with a sleeper box was seen in Idaho in 1997.

This old Maple tree has been around for an estimated 250 years, long before the roadway that now passes by it. One more time , though it’s starting to show its age, it demonstrates its splendor in the Fall of seasons.
