Whatever Happened to Predictability?

 In San Francisco, and look who else was there:  T. Rex, finishing up her month-long bike ride from San Diego.  What sounds good for lunch, T. Rex?  Five pounds of Pho?

Looking for Love on the Lonely Road

I found no love/ on the open highway/ only the echoes of my mind.

Holy Toledo!

Outside the Hotel Toledo in Toledo, Iowa, named for the hometown of its oldest resident. The hotel is now an apartment building.

This Lincoln Highway marker outside the Iowa welcome center is one of a handful still in their original positions.

Holy Mother of God, That's a Big Statue

Triple A notes that at 180 tons, this is one of the larger Marian statues in the United States. I said a prayer for safe passage and of thanksgiving that I was finally off of I-80.

This tree has been a tourist attraction since the Union Pacific Railroad was routed around it in 1867. It now stands on the median of I-80, making me wonder how many lives it has claimed over the years. As you can see, it was quite windy.

Lincoln, Lincoln, I've Been Thinkin'

The Railsplitter seems to glare down in haughty disdain from atop the summit of his namesake highway outside Laramie, WY.
