Peaceful Drives

Can I just say how excited I am that the gas prices are falling. To drive through Atlanta and see they are below $2.50 gets me pretty excited, which is pathetic. When I first moved to Atlanta in 1998, I remember prices hovered around .89-.99!! Now those were the good old days.

Time to hit the road soon, but to where? There are too many commitments that I have to attend to. So in the meantime, I will have to think back to a few short weeks ago when I was camping in North Georgia. My Sunday morning drive just begged to captured.

Close your eyes (don't worry--I'm driving), turn the radio off and just listen as the wind blows in your hair. Feel the sun peeking through the trees and and floods through the sun roof. Nice, isn't it?

Have you been on a long drive recently? What are you waiting for???

Now this is quite cool! I love that you show us some video footage of your drive. I enjoy your blog. You have a good variety of topics here, but still remain within your main topic. Reading some of your posts has brought back memories of the Sunday drives our family used to take. There was never a destination, we would just all pile in the car and go. It was always so relaxing and fun. Now I would never even consider doing such a thing! The time, the gas...... But your blog has me thinking. I wish I hadn't missed the fall colors, I blame school but I guess you just have to make an effort and get out there.
Anyway, back to your blog. I like the dark background, your use of photos, links, and video. I also like your style of writing. You could add a link to view all of your photos (you may have done this already, I have not read everything).
Looking forward to your next post!
