The Eastern Sierras from Highway 395

Hi everyone! We're home after traveling over 2300 miles, mostly on empty two-lane highways, through relatively unspoiled natural beauty.

Our trip was about as relaxing as car travel can be and we were rejuvenated in passing through so much open uncluttered space.

There were many sights to see and many people to visit, some of whom I haven't seen in over 25 years.

We took over 500 photos along the way but I've limited myself to posting 25 here for a little travelogue.

As much as I enjoyed visiting my family and seeing so much natural beauty, I'm really glad to be home, and free again from the automobile.

We traveled at a relaxing pace but I'm still feeling some road-speed withdrawal.

I wanted to get these pictures all posted yesterday but there was much to do around here so I'm posting them now and will add comments as I find the time.

Peggy enjoys a morning soak in a remote tub at Spencer Hot Springs a few miles off Highway 50 east of Austin. We camped here Monday night and spent several hours in the tub sipping Margaritas under a blanket of stars. This was a favorite spot for Dallas too, who had hundreds of jackrabbits to chase.

"That road looks like the road to nowhere and the road to everywhere all at the same time. I love how it looks like the entire world is spread out before you, beckoning you to enter...if you dare..."

The above comment is what blogfriend Vivacious Vegan saw in the photograph. Thanks V. V. , I couldn't have said it any better!
