So long drives don't really feel long to me. Sometimes if I have a familiar long drive it can seem longer because there is not the same concentration factor and my mind may wander a bit. When you're done with the mind wander on a familiar trip, sometimes you're like, "I'm only here so far?" >.< I think that fences along the roadways is not a terrible idea, but it's a big undertaking and animals migrate, so with so many fences up, the U.S. government would further impinge on the animal world by restricting their migration. Think of it almost as a zoo for nature. I don't think that's something the government wants to do. Thank you both Carlyn and lle for recognizing my achievement. It was a lot of fun to visit two new states. Hopefully I can repeat that next year, even though the travel challenge becomes increasingly difficult. jon bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16082859646896477574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-93806949401535283.post-18613580266074570722013-11-27T22:34:46.765-08:002013-11-27T22:34:46.765-08:00Christmas decorations this early.

I can't believe you drove for 7 hours on the trip to and the 9 hours on the trip back. Did you feel all those hours or did time pass you by? It sounds like a nice magical moment with your family looking at Christmas lights. As for the deer, are there high fences along some of the road? What preventative measures do the government take to prevent the deer from going on the road?Carlynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01226024126682885326noreply@blogger.com
