Mar 16

Last minute change of plans. Instead of driving to Santa Fe in two days, I powered through the whole thing today.

Which means I spent 8 hours driving on the interstate.

Which is all well and good, and it was neat to see all the wind farms and the change from plains to shrubs to mesas to mountains.

But it also means my brain is mush, so here is a bit of a photo and video diary of the day instead of words.

Museum of the day: Russell’s Car and Collectible Museum at a rest stop on I-40 in Glen Rio, New Mexico. This is the stuff my road trip dreams are made of. I bought the t-shirt.

Cloud of the day: this positively Turner-esque smear of drama over the Texas panhandle.

A photo of a thin strip of brown plains under a dramatic swirl of smeary white clouds across a blue sky.

Creative Writing Corner:

Her eyes went bleary and the droning hum of moving onward stayed in her ears and her brain.
