Today was a traveling day. We woke up at a Love’s in Tennessee around nine in the morning and started driving shortly after. Z encourages me to keep my camera at hand. You never know when you’re going to see something worth shooting. He’s right. The road we were on was extremely picturesque. For a short while it ran between a cliff side and a river. I tried to capture it on film but that’s a challenging task at 60 mph.
He is sweet though. He pulled into a scenic overlook not far from Ooltewah, TN. I snapped off a few shots but I must admit, they could have chosen a better location in that area for a pull off.
Right now we’re driving along the I-59 in Mississippi towards Texas. We’re unloading our first job in Houston sometime tomorrow. I have an old friend who lives there I haven’t seen since I was 12. A few years ago he found me on MySpace of all places, and we’ve kept in contact ever since. I hope we can all meet up, even for a short while.
We’ve been driving for a few hours now. These roads are so dark. Lit up occasionally by a towering cross (or three).
I’m getting pretty tired. Its becoming easier and easier to fall asleep to rumble of the engine. At first it was sort of annoying. This incessant noise that sort of drilled itself into my head. Now it feels strange when I don’t hear it.
