I've been doing "virtual" travel via Google Maps ... sort of dreaming where I'm
going to go if I ever get to go anywhere again. I've made it down to Atlanta so far.
I-40 to I-85 is the quickest, but US 1 down to Columbia, SC and I-20 through
Augusta are maybe less hectic. Neither appears to be all that photogenic. No
place along the way that really inspires me to linger.
I'm thinking about how I could do just sticking to the numbered highways and
avoiding the interstates all together.
Atlanta is just the gateway to places west ...
There's an old saying that if you die anywhere in the south it doesn't matter if
you're going to heaven or to hell, you're going to change planes in Atlanta.
I'm going out west again some day. Maybe I'll make it all the way to California.
There's a couple of things I saw before that I'd like to see again & maybe try
to get a decent photograph this time.

liked to have driven it with you.
Motley crew looks like they are wondering what the hell you are doing there.

On Friday I worked in Modesto. For those of you who aren’t familiar with
Central California geography, it’s about 115 miles (180 klicks) and a two hour
drive away.
In short, I drove two hours there, it took us 4.5 hours to install a rack, and
after getting an awesome (take out) burger, I was facing a two hour drive
home. Fortunately I knew a shortcut over Mount Hamilton, which if I didn’t
stop, would only take about 3.5 hours.
For Great Glass!

At one point, just before going around a turn, I saw this motley looking crew
standing by the road, so I stopped to photograph them, never getting even
within 6m, much less 6 feet:

I crested the summit just before sunset, and spent another big chunk of time
photographing in that area as well.
